Distant home, across the earth we roam,
Leaving all that we possess behind us
Known by name, we make no earthly claim,
Waiting for the one we seek to find us
Exiles of another kind, with our maker intertwine
Vessels on a sea of love
Aliens to mother earth, waiting for the second birth
Vessels on a sea of love
Out of bounds, no boundary surrounds,
No one's worldly object of desire
Nations fade, but this foundations' laid
Shaped in the divine refiner's fire
Exiles of another kind, with our maker intertwine
Vessels on a sea of love
Aliens to mother earth, waiting for the second birth
Vessels on a sea of love
Eyes are fixed on the goal ahead
So alive but to the world we're dead
Inside outside upside down
Each man stands on the rock he's found
Twice removed from the human race,
We found our peace in a hiding place
Strangers livin' in a foreign land
Now we fall, but in the end we'll stand
Exiles of the world
No release for prisoners of peace
Willing to be slaves of our own choosing
Promising to serve no mortal king,
Gaining so much more than we are losing
Exiles of another kind, with our maker intertwine
Vessels on a sea of love
Aliens to mother earth, waiting for the second birth
Vessels on a sea of love
