1. I am a pilgrim, and a stranger, Traveling through this barren land. I've got a home in that yonder city, Oh God, And it's out (oh Lord and it's out) the sight of man. 2. I have a father, and a mother, Sister and brother, gone on before. Bye and bye I'm going to meet them, Oh God, Where we'll dwell (oh Lord where we'll dwell), forever more. 3. Well, I have trials and tribulations; I have trouble on ev'ry hand. But I've started for that city, Oh God, And, I'm doin' (oh Lord and I'm doin') the best I can.
