Looking for city where we'll never die,
There the sainted millions, never say goodbye; There we'll meet our Savior, And our loved ones too; Come, O Holy Spirit, All our hopes renew.
Here among the shadows living in a lonely land,
With strangers we're a band of pilgrims on the move; Thro' dangers burdened down with sorrows, And we're shunned on every hand, But we are looking for a city built above.
Here in disappointment often we so sadly roam,
And earthly friends, no longer speak one word of love; But truly we have found contentment, Jesus promised us a home, So we are looking for a city built above.
In this land of dangers we are going here and there,
We're simply trusting in the blessed Savior's love; And mercy tho' we may be strangers, Living in this world of care, We're always looking for a city built above.
