Lyrics
Stranger
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
On the road that's less traveled
Through lonely terrain
The highway of holiness
Brings eternal gain
In the land of the living
My mission is clear
To conform to His likeness
As long as I'm here
Chorus:
I am a stranger
Traveling in a foreign land
Encountering danger
Shielded by my Father's hand
Dying, to make a level path
Crying for the comfort of His staff
I'm a stranger in a foreign land
Yet I won't be discouraged
When rains flood my path
My ark is the Savior
Who spares me God's wrath
So I press on with courage
That's fueled by a fire
As His Word sustains me
And drives my desire
Repeat Chorus
The journey begins
In the valley of decision
With a hunger for reaching His throne
The journey will end
On the mountain of His kingdom
When I inherit my home
Till then I'm a stranger
Repeat Chorus
