|
I am a pilgrim and a stranger |
|
Travelling through this wearisome land |
|
I've got a home in that yonder city, good lord |
|
I've got a mother, sister and a brother |
|
Who have gone this way before |
|
I am determined to go and see them, good lord |
|
For they're on that other shore |
|
I'm goin' down to the river of jordan |
|
Just to bathe my wearisome soul |
|
If I can just touch the hem of his garment, good lord |
|
Then I know he'd take me home |
|
I am a pilgrim and a stranger |
|
Travelling through this wearisome land |
|
I've got a home in that yonder city, good lord |
