1. O stranger in the land, though
Far from home the pearl is strange.

2. If you've been gone for long,
The moon has missed its range.

3. Pass your days, then turn back home,
Where your heart is healed and whole.

4. All a man can claim of life
Is the love that fills his soul.

5. Though fate's dealt so much to me,
My days with you were fair and bright.

6. What God has willed for each man,
He shall have, as is his right.
