Looking for a City
LOOKING FOR A CITYKey:Bb 4/4 Words:W Oliver Cooper Music:Marvin P Dalton (1943)
(With strangers) We're a band of pilgrims on the move; (Thru dangers) Burdened down with sorrows, (And we're) shunned on every hand; (But we are) Looking for a city built above.
Looking for a city, Yonder where we'll never die, (And up) There the sainted millions, (We will) Never say goodbye; (Yes, and) There we'll meet our Savior, Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com And our loved ones too, (Now we) Pray, Come, O Holy Spirit, All our hopes renew.
(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.
(We're simply) trusting in the blessed Savior's love; (And mercy) tho' we may be strangers, (Living) In this world of care, (We're always) Looking for a city built above.
