Stranger
by Candy Hemphill

Album: Heart of Fire

1. Many a traveler has stood on the shore
And watched the sunset afar
Thrilled by the beauty, eyes misting over
Tugged by a pain in his heart
Thinking of loved ones, their faces a memory
And homeland from where he had gone
And said As much as I like it here
I've got a longing for home

Chorus
Stranger, oh feel like a stranger
Though your heart aches
You're not alone
You're a stranger longing for home

2. I know the feeling others have felt
Dreaming of some distant land
I know the pain of a heart that's remembering
The smile or the touch of a hand
Heaven's my home, I want to see Jesus
And all of the loved ones who've gone
So even as much as I like it here
I've got a longing for home.
