We are pilgrims in a strange land We are so far from our homeland
With each passing day it seems so clear This world will never want us here
We're not welcome in this world of wrong We are foreigners who don't belong
(Chorus)
We are strangers, we are aliens
We are not of this world
We are envoys, we must tarry With this message we must carry
There's so much to do before we leave With so many more who may believe
Our mission here can never fail And the gates of hell will not prevail
Jesus told us men would hate us But we must be of good cheer
He has overcome this world of darkness And soon we will depart from here
