Here among the shadows...[living] in a lonely land...
[With strangers] we're a band of pilgrims on the move....
Through dangers...burdened down with sorrows...
[And we're] shunned on every hand....
[But we are] looking for a city built above....
The Chorus:
Looking for a city......[yonder]...where we'll never die....
There the sainted millions....[we will] never say good by....
There we'll meet our Savior.....and our loved ones too....
Come...O Holy Spirit...all our hopes renew.....
Verse Two:
Here in disappointments...[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....
Verse Three:
In this land of dangers..[we are] going here and there...
[We're simply] trusting in the blessed Savior's love...
And mercy, though we may be strangers.......
[Living] in this world of care....
[We're always] looking for a city built above....
The Chorus:
Looking for a city......yonder where we'll never die....
There the sainted millions....we will never say good by....
There we'll meet our Savior.....and our loved ones too....
Come...O Holy Spirit...all our hopes renew.....
Tag
Come O Holy Spirit....
All our hopes renew.....
