I'm But a Stranger Here

1I'm but a stranger here,
Heaven is my home;
Earth is a desert drear,
Heaven is my home;

RefrainDanger and sorrow stand
Round me on every hand;
Heaven is my fatherland,
Heaven is my home.

2What though the tempest rage,
Heaven is my home;
Short is my pilgrimage,
Heaven is my home.

3There at my Savior's side,
Heaven is my home;
I shall be glorified,
Heaven is my home.
