Johnny Cash - I Am a Pilgrim lyrics
[Johnny Cash - I Am a Pilgrim lyrics]
Traveling through this wearisome land
And I've got a home in that yonder city
Good Lord and it's not
(good Lord, 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 Lord, 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 Lord
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
(Lord, sweet peace) his soul is found
