Strangers, pilgrims, sojourners In this world, In this world! We dwell in hunger and thirst, There’s surfeit of this suffering, In this world, In this world.
It is in the dark we walk In this world, In this world! All living being are blind, Jesus, we pleas, be our light, In this world, In this world.
All our hearts are full of filth, In this world, In this world! There’s surfeit of lovelessness, And we dwell amongst sinners In this world, In this world.
Indeed death is very near In this world, In this world! Every day we move around Amidst danger and disease In this world, In this world.
We are in the battle front In this world, In this world Satan our enemy’s strong, Only Jesus can save us, In this world In this world
Weeping and regret are much In this world, In this world Its beauty is a shadow True joy’s unattainable In this world, In this world.
Lord, sustain us with your love In this world, In this world Save us from this world’s evil Make us abide in your love In this world, In this world. Amen.
