Citizen

I want to live like a foreigner

Citizen of a holy nation

Live here in reverent fear

Lord secure my sanctification

Set me apart and separated

You give the gift of self control

Conformed to Christ and consecrated

Now dedicate my soul.

I am a citizen of a holy nation

A sojourner here below

Abiding here in alienation

From the world through which I go

I have been taken hold of

By the Christ that loves me so

No stranger to this bold love

But a member of God’s household

Bridge

Lord purify my heart

Set my soul apart

Dedicated to You alone

Help me stand boldly before your throne

I am a citizen of a holy nation

A sojourner here below

Abiding here in alienation

From the world through which I go

All my hope is in your great salvation

All my hope is in your great salvation

All my hope is in your great salvation

1 Peter 1:13; Leviticus 19:18; 1 Peter 1:16
