David Speights’ Foreigners and Strangers - https://youtu.be/snBWB_DoJUs

Lyrics to “Foreigners and Stranger” by David Speights

We were born into a world of earthly kingdoms
Given to the god of war
But when you meet, the kingdom life of Jesus
You realize there’s so much more

In days of old the kings said bow before their idols
True believers never would
So they were thrown into the fiery furnace
They followed God as so we should

Some would tell you that you ought to pledge allegiance
To a kingdom of this world
They say the flag represents our freedom
But that's not the freedom of our Lord

Jesus said to render unto Caesar
Just the things his image bears
But we belong to a different kingdom
The image of Christ is what we wear

Scripture tells us we cannot serve two masters
For we cannot love them both
We must choose what kingdom we follow
Let us serve the Lord of Host

Chorus:
We’re here as foreigners & strangers
Living in a foreign land.  Oh yea.
We’re here as followers of Jesus
Take a stand

The kingdoms of earth
They will not endure
The kingdom of God
is forever sure!

So choose you this day
Which kingdom you’ll serve
Our Lord’s promise stands
For all who endure
