Tramps & Pilgrims

13 (A) All these died in faith, (B) without receiving the promises, but (C) having seen them and having welcomed them from a distance, and (D) having confessed that they were strangers and exiles on Earth.

14 For those who say such things make it clear that they are seeking a country of their own.

15 And indeed if they had been thinking of that country from which they went out, (E) they would have had opportunity to return.

16 But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a (F) heavenly one. Therefore (G) God is not ashamed to be (H) called their God; for (I) He has prepared a city for them.

-Hebrews 11:13-16
