一 我在異鄉作客，天是我家，
途經可畏曠野，天是我家；
憂愁、危險充斥，時刻環繞身惻，
我本來自天鄉，天是我家。
二 試探風浪洶湧，天是我家，
旅客生涯不長，天是我家；
時間如風飛逝，轉眼一切消失，
至終我將歸家，天是我家。
三 為此，再無怨聲，天是我家，
無懼世慮纏身，天是我家；
因我必將站立救主寶座前面，
我本來自天鄉，天是我家。
四 今世原是曠野，天是我家，
我將榮耀返回，天是我家；
得見眾優勝者，素為我所羨愛，
永同安息彼岸，天是我家。
1. I'm but a stranger here,
Heav'n is my home;
Only a sojourner,
Heav'n is my home.
Danger and sorrow stand,
Round me on ev'ry hand,
Heav'n is my fatherland,
Heav'n is my home.
2. What though the tempests rage,
Heav'n is my home;
Short is my pilgrim age,
Heav'n is my home.
And time's wild wintry blast
Soon will be overpast;
I shall reach home at last,
Heav'n is my home.
3. Therefore I'll murmur not,
Heav'n is my home;
What'er my earthly lot,
Heav'n is my home,
For I shall surely stand
There at my Lord's right hand
Heav'n is my fatherland,
Heav'n is my home.
4. Earth is a desert drear,
Heav'n is my home;
I shall be glorified,
Heav'n is my home.
There are the good and blest,
Those I loved most and best.
And there I too shall rest;
Heav'n is my home.
