962. We've no abiding city here

1 We've no abiding city here:
Sad truth, were this to be our home;
But let this thought our spirits cheer,--
We seek a city yet to come.

2 We've no abiding city here:
Then let us live as pilgrims do;
Let not the world our rest appear,
But let us haste from all below.

3 We've no abiding city here:
We seek a city out of sight;
Zion its name--the Lord is there;
It shines with everlasting light.
