Cash, Johnny - I Am A Pilgrim Lyrics
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
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
They can say that he's just laying there sleeping, good Lord
Sweet peace (Lordy sweet peace) his soul is found

Curtis your comment is bat crazy
first time hearing this.
I gotta say, cash is hit or miss. this was a big miss.
borderline disrespectful.
Wasnt meant to be 'impressive' - just a simple 'sit back on the 'ol verandi and enjoy, contemplate etc. Take time to smell the roses.

Among the songs that I played for my mother and anyone who visited her as she was passing from this life. Thanks for sharing.
This is good. But I'm looking in vain for another song of that name and none of these has that melody. In Great Songs of the Church "I'm a Pilgrim" goes "I'm a pilgrim and I'm a stranger, I can tarry, I can tarry but a night. Do not detain me, for I am going to where the fountains are ever flowing, I'm a pilgrim [etc.]"
