Author: Rev. J. M. Orrock Hymnal: Melodies of Salvation #221 (1901) First Line: In this world I am a stranger Refrain First Line: Even now my heart is yonder Lyrics: 1 In this world I am a stranger,
Heaven is my fatherland,
Tho’ on ev’ry side is danger,
Yet with confidence I stand;
For I know that He who bought me
With His own most precious blood,
Will not rest till He has brought me
Safe beyond death’s chilling flood.
Chorus:
Even now my heart is yonder,
While my feet are on the way;
Praise the Lord! I’m growing stronger
In His service day by day.
2 Oh, for grace to do, and suffer
All my heav’nly Father’s will,
And to know no other pleasure
Than His purpose to fulfill;
Then, when resurrection glory
Drives away the mists of time,
I shall gladly tell the story
Of His grace in strains sublime. [Chorus]
3 When among the ransomed standing
On the heights of paradise,
Where, ‘mid scenes of bliss enchanting,
Doubts and fears no more shall rise;
All our trials, all our sorrows,
Now so great, shall disappear,
As the sunrise of the morrow
Makes the darkened heavens clear. [Chorus]
