Bill & Gloria Gaither - Looking for a City lyrics (Live)

 

LOOKING FOR A Citykey: Bb 4/4
Words: W Oliver Cooper Music: Marvin P Dalton (1943)

 

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,
And Our Loved Ones Too,
(Now We) Pray, Come, O Holy Spirit,
All Our Hopes Renew.

 

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.

 

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.

 

 

James 1:26  

If Anyone Thinks He Is Religious And Does Not Bridle His Tongue But Deceives His Heart, This Person's Religion Is Worthless.
