I am a Pilgrim

Johnny Cash/Merle Travis, My mothers hymn book/3

I am a pilgrim, and a stranger
Travelling through this wearisome land
I’ve got a home in that yonder city, good Lord
And it´s not made with hands.

I´ve got a mother, got sister and a brother
Who have gone this way before
I am determinedto go and see them, good Lord
Over on that other shore

I am a pilgrim, and a stranger
Travelling through this wearisome land
I’ve got a home in that yonder city, good Lord
And it´s not made with hands.

Now I’m going to the river of Jordan
just to bathe my weary some soul
If I can just touch the hem of his garment, good Lord
Then I know He´ll 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
And it´s not made with hands.
