1. I'm but a stran- ger here, Heav'n is my home; Earth is a des- ert drear, Heav'n is my home. Dan- ger and sor- row stand round me on ev- ery hand; Heav'n is my fa- ther- land, Heav'n is my home.

2. What though the temp- est rage, Heav'n is my home; Short is my pil- grim- age, Heav'n is my home; Time's wild and win- try blast soon shall be ov- er past; I shall reach home at last, Heav'n is my home.

3. There at my Sa- vior's side Heav'n is my home; I shall be glor- i- fied, Heav'n is my home. There are the good and blest, those I loved most and best; There, too, I soon shall rest, Heav'n is my home.

4. There- fore I mur- mur not, Heav'n is my home; What- e'er my earth- ly lot, Heav'n is my home; And I shall sure- ly stand there at my Lord's right hand. Heav'n is my fa- ther- land, Heav'n is my home.
