[Chorus]
G C
I am a pilgrim and a stranger
C7 F C
Traveling through this wearisome land
C7 F
I've got a home in that yonder city Good Lord
C F G C
And it's not, not made by hand
[Verse I]
G C
I got a mother, got a sister and a
brother
C7 F C
Who have gone this way before
C7 F
I am determined to go and see them, good Lord
C F G C
Over on, that other shore
[Verse II]
G C
I’m going down to the river of
Jordan
C7 F C
Just to bath my wearisome soul
C7 F
If I can just touch the him of his garment, good Lord
C F G C
Then I know, he’d take me home
[Chorus]
G C
I am a pilgrim and a stranger
C7 F C
Traveling through this wearisome land
C7 F
I've got a home in that yonder city Good Lord
C F G C
And it's not, not made by hand
I am a pilgrim and a stranger
Traveling through this wearisome land
And I've got a home in that yonder city, good Lord
And it's not (good Lordy it's not) not made by hand
I got a mother, a sister and a brother
Who have gone to that sweet home
And I am determined to go and see them, good Lord
Over on (good Lordy over on) that distant shore
As I go down to that river Jordan
Just to bathe my weary soul
If I could touch but just the hem of His garment, good Lord
I believe (good Lordy I believe) that it would make me whole
Now when I'm dead, laying in my coffin
All of my friends all gather round
They can say that he's just laying there sleeping, good Lord
Sweet peace (Lordy sweet peace) his soul is found
