Heaven is My Home

LYRICS BY THOMAS R. Taylor | Setting by Illumine Church

Lyrics
I’m but a stranger here, 
heaven is my home;
earth is a desert drear, 
heaven is my home;
danger and sorrow stand
round me on every hand;
heaven is my fatherland,
heaven is my home.

What though the tempest rage,
heaven is my home;
short is my pilgrimage,
heaven is my home;
and time’s wintry blast
soon shall be over past;
I shall reach home at last,
heaven is my home.

Therefore I murmur not,
heaven is my home;
whatever my earthly lot,
heaven is my home;
and I shall surely stand
there at my Lord’s right hand.
Heaven is my fatherland, 
heaven is my home.
