Cork composium, 2 March 2020
Led by Josh Lant at the 2020 Ireland convention composium.
Description
For my friends in St Anthony Park, St Paul, MN.
Words changed in spring of 2020; the previous text was "The clouds of judgement gather".
Text
A pilgrim and a stranger,
I journey here below;
Far distant is my country,
The home to which I go.
Here I must toil and travail,
Oft weary and opprest,
But there my God shall lead me
To everlasting rest.
