Not Of This World

Not of this World
 Words and music by Bob Hartman
 Based on 2 Peter 2: 11, John 15: 18-19, John 16: 33, Matthew 16: 18, John 14: 3
 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
