#### I'M LONGING FOR HOME

I

I'M ONLY A PILGRIM AND A STRANGER
IN THIS UNFRIENDLY WORLD I ROAM.
SERVING HIM WHO HAS BROUGHT ME FROM DARKNESS
AND PROMISED ME A HEAVENLY HOME.
OF HIS WONDERFUL LOVE I'M TELLING
WHERE EVER IN THIS WORLD I MAY BE.
TO THE SAVIOR WHO SUFFERED FOR ME.

II

SOON MY LABOR ON EARTH WILL BE ENDED
I'LL BE LEAVING THIS OLD WORLD SOMEDAY.
I'LL BE LEAVING THE DARK VEIL OF SHADOWS
TO A LAND THAT IS BETTER THEY SAY.
WE READ OF A PLACE IN THE BIBLE
WHO'S BUILDER IS JESUS WE'RE TOLD.
SOMEDAY THIS WORLD TENT WILL BE FOLDED
AND THE BEAUTIFUL SCENES WILL UNFOLD.

CHORUS

I'M LONGING FOR HOME ...
FOR THE SUNS GOING DOWN ...
I LONG TO GO WHERE ...
SWEET REST CAN BE FOUND ...
I'M JUST ABOUT THROUGH ...
WITH THIS OLD HOUSE OF CLAY ...
I'LL BE LEAVING THIS WORLD ...
FOR GLORY SOMEDAY ...
