Strangers Here
Tenth Avenue North's song "Strangers Here" is a comforting Christian ballad that acknowledges the pain and heartache of life in a broken world. The lyrics encourage listeners who feel weary and out of place, reminding them that their suffering is temporary and that this earth is not their true home. The song points to the hope of heaven, where believers will one day see God face to face and sorrow will vanish. It gently addresses the fear of missing out on worldly things, affirming that the present struggles are not the final chapter. The overall message is one of perseverance and eternal perspective, offering solace to those who are hurting.
I know you�??re tired of the hurt and the heartache
You feel like giving in, you feel like walking away
And I know it�??s difficult feeling so out of place
But this is not how it�??s gonna be
Your pain is temporary
We�??re all strangers here
So it�??s alright if you can�??t
Stop the tears that you cry
�??Cause some day we�??ll touch the face of our God
And the sorrow will disappear
Until then, we�??re strangers here
That�??s hard to hear if you want to keep chasing
This broken world that only keeps your heart breaking
So if you�??re scared �??cause you think that you�??re missing out
This is not the ending
No, this is not the ending
We�??re all strangers here
So it�??s alright if you can�??t
Stop the tears that you cry
�??Cause some day we�??ll touch the face of our God
And the sorrow will disappear
Until then, we�??re strangers here
This is not the homeland
We can see the lights from here
He�??s making us a city
Where there are no fears
And it�??s drawing near
Until then, we�??re strangers here
We�??re just strangers here
We�??re all strangers here
So it�??s alright if you can�??t
Stop the tears that you cry
�??Cause some day we�??ll touch the face of our God
And the sorrow will disappear
Until then, we�??re strangers here
