We are foreigners, we are travelers
To a country of our own
We are citizens of heaven
Waiting for our king to come

We are making our exodus
Out of this world of sin and death…

Oh… this is not our home
Oh… we’re seeking one that is to come
Oh… this is not our home
Oh… we’re headed for the kingdom

We are ambassadors, we are ministers
Reconciling God and men
And as we pass along, we will call to all
Join our band of vagabonds

We are making our exodus
Out of this world of sin and death
We are making our exodus
Into the life that he’s promised

Oh… this is not our home
Oh… we’re seeking one that is to come
Oh… this is not our home
Oh… we’re headed for the kingdom

To live is christ, to die is gain
And though the journey may feel long
We’ll make the most of every day

Oh… this is not our home
Oh… we’re seeking one that is to come
Oh… this is not our home
We’re headed for the kingdom
