Lyrics

I'm a pilgrim and a stranger

Traveling through this barren land

I've got a home in that yonder city, good Lord

And I do the best I can

I'm a pilgrim and a stranger

Traveling through this weary, summer land

I've got a home in that yonder city, good Lord

And I do the best I can

I've been tempted and I've been tried

I've been discouraged on every side

But I keep traveling through this land

Lord, I do the best I can

I've got a mother, a sister and a brother

Who have gone, gone to that sweet home

I'm determined to go and see them

For they're on that distant shore

I'm a pilgrim and a stranger

Traveling through this barren land

I gotta a home in that yonder city, good Lord

And I do the best I can

Now I got back on down to that River Jordan

Just to bathe my weary soul

If I could touch but the hem of his garment

I believe that that would make me whole

Now when I'm dead, lyin' in my coffin

All of my friends all gathered round

They say, he's lying there sleepin', good Lord

Sweet peace his soul has found

Lord knows, I'm a pilgrim and a stranger

Traveling through this wearisome land

I got a home in that yonder city, good Lord

And I'm, I'm gonna do the best I can

Lord knows I'm a pilgrim, stranger

A travelin' through this weary land

I gotta home in that yonder city, oh Lord

And I do the best I can
