I'm Not For This World" TOLT 29
‎
‎1. I was a stranger in a barren land,
‎Not knowing the God of glory planned
‎To call me out from the world into this journey.
‎By faith He led me to the promised land
‎Where living water freshens me
‎And satisfaction’s in the living tree…
‎
‎Chorus 1:
‎In the church—here to stay!
‎Countless times I’ve failed but
‎You show me the way back.
‎I'm not of this world!
‎You’ve appeared* to me Lord,
‎There's no turning back.
‎I've seen my destiny
‎Is an eternal city
‎Whose Architect and Builder is my God
‎
‎2. Though God has brought me to this chosen land,
‎At times I don't really understand
‎The sufferings I go through, “Lord is all this for me?”
‎I am a man under Your sovereign hand.
‎Your mercy shines and now I see,
‎Your tenderheartedness to deal with me…
‎
‎Chorus 2:
‎In the church, have Your way.
‎Strip me off of the earthly joys that replace You.
‎I’m not for this world.
‎Though the old man decays,
‎I’m daily renewed
‎My life on earth must be
‎To seek a better country
‎Whose Architect and Builder is my God
‎
‎3. As I sojourn this temporary land,
‎Lord strengthen me, so trials I’d withstand,
‎Not losing sight of the eternity before me.
‎My future is brighter than what's at hand.
‎These sorrows, they will fade and flee
‎As glory fills me for eternity.
‎
‎Chorus 3:
‎We’re the church in this age,
‎Getting ready to meet our Bridegroom that day!
‎We are not for this world!
‎We’re preparing for the new heav’n and new earth.
‎To be His masterpiece,
‎His bride eternally—
‎Our destiny’s the New Jerusalem.
