Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Pulled up to the diner, Bible on the dash They stared at me like I'd crashed in from the past Talking ’bout heaven like it’s right around the bend Guess I’m just a stranger they don’t understand [Chorus] I’m an alien in a foreign land Got a home up yonder that’s already planned Got my ticket in the blood of the Lamb So I don’t plant deep roots in this sand Yeah, I’m passing through this earthly ground Just a pilgrim in a country town Singin’, “This world ain’t where my story stands” I’m an alien in a foreign land [Verse 2] Front porch swing and a paid-off little place Can’t outshine the promise of a face-to-face With the One who walked my road and rolled that stone That’s the only reason I don’t call this home [Chorus] I’m an alien in a foreign land Got a home up yonder that’s already planned Got my ticket in the blood of the Lamb So I don’t plant deep roots in this sand Yeah, I’m passing through this earthly ground Just a pilgrim in a country town Singin’, “This world ain’t where my story stands” I’m an alien in a foreign land [Bridge] [Band drops to claps and stomp] This ain’t it, this ain’t it (oh, sing it now) Every trial gonna quit when He comes down I’ll trade this dust for glory, trade these boots for crown Til that day, I’ll keep on standin’ out [Chorus] I’m an alien in a foreign land Got a home up yonder that’s already planned Got my ticket in the blood of the Lamb So I don’t plant deep roots in this sand Yeah, I’m passing through this earthly ground Just a pilgrim in a country town Singin’, “This world ain’t where my story stands” I’m an alien in a foreign land
