| Text: | We've no abiding city here |
| Author: | Kelly |
1 We've no abiding city here:
Sad truth, were this to be our home;
But let this thought our spirits cheer,--
We seek a city yet to come.
2 We've no abiding city here:
Then let us live as pilgrims do;
Let not the world our rest appear,
But let us haste from all below.
3 We've no abiding city here:
We seek a city out of sight;
Zion its name--the Lord is there;
It shines with everlasting light.
