Sojourner's Song (I Don't Belong) Lyrics
By Gloria Gaither & Buddy Greene
Verse 1 It’s not home where men sell their souls and the taste of power is sweet, Where wrong is right and neighbors fight while the hunger are dying in the street. Where kids are abused and women are used; and the weak are crushed by the strong. Nations gone mad, Jesus is sad and I don’t belong. Chorus I don’t belong and I’m going someday, home to my own native land. I don’t belong and it seems like I hear the sound of a welcome home band. I don’t belong; I’m a foreigner here just singing a sojourner’s song. I’ve always known this place ain’t home and I don’t belong Verse 2 I don’t belong Chords - But while I’m here I’ll be living like I’ve nothing to lose and while I breath I’ll just believe my Lord is going to see me through. I’ll not be deceived by earth’s make believe, I’ll close my ears to her siren song. By praising His name – I’m not ashamed cause I don’t belong. Chorus I don’t belong and I’m going someday, home to my own native land. I don’t belong and it seems like I hear the sound of a welcome home band. I don’t belong; I’m a foreigner here just singing a sojourner’s song. I’ve always known this place ain’t home and I don’t belong Verse 3 I belong to a kingdom of peace where only love is the law. Where children lead and captives are freed and God becomes a baby on the straw Where dead man live; and rich man give their kingdom to buy back a song. Where sinners like me become royalty and we’ll all belong Chorus Yes I belong Chords - and I’m going someday, home to my own native land. Where I belong and it seems like I hear the sound of a welcome home band. Yes I belong; no foreigner there singing a sojourner’s song. I’ve always known I’m going home where I belong
