I am a pilgrim and a stranger |
|
Travelin' through this worrisome land |
|
I got a home built in that yonder city, good |
|
I got a mother, a sister, and a father |
|
Done gone on now to the other shore |
|
And I am determined to go and see them, good |
|
LordAnd to live with them forevermore |
|
When I go down to the |
|
River of Jordon |
|
Just to bathe my, my weary soul |
|
If I can but touch the hem of |
|
His garment, good |
|
LordThen I, |
|
I know He'll make me whole |
|
And when He lays me down for the last time |
|
With his hard hand resting on my breast |
|
And I don't want none of that weepin' and cryin' over me' |
|
Cause you know that |
|
I'm gone to rest |
|
Yes, I am a pilgrim and a stranger |
|
Traveling through this, this worrisome land |
|
And I got a home in that yonder city, good |
