| These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them, and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country. (Heb. 11:13‑14) |
| If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto Myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. (John 14:3) |
Eternal in the heavens
Is our prepared abode —
Radiant and pure, in light divine,
The building of our God. |
Come quickly, blessed Lord!
Like exiles here we roam;
Fulfill to us Thy gracious word;
Lord Jesus, take us home. |
