SOJOURNERS <\/p>\n

No matter how hard you may try,
\nEven if you squeeze it so thin,
\nA square peg in a round hole,
\nSimply will never fit in.<\/p>\n

We Christians are much the same,
\nWhen it concerns life on Earth,
\nOur sight is set upon Heaven,
\nThings here don’t have much worth.<\/p>\n

Some people don’t understand us,
\nThey see us strange, a little odd,
\nBut we are sojourning pilgrims,
\nBound for the City of our God.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
