Minnetonka Songs ‎#113

113. Little Pilgrim

1 I'm a little pilgrim,
With my staff in hand,
Climbing up the narrow path,
To join the heav'nly band.

Chorus:
Oh, who will come with me?
Joyous is the way,
Oh, who will come with me?
Come, come to-day.

2 Many, many dangers,
All the way, I see,
But the Savior's ever near,
And he my guide will be. [Chorus]

3 If the way grows weary,
In his arms I'll rest,
For "the lambs," he says, "he'll bear
Upon his loving breast." [Chorus]

4 I'm a little pilgrim,
I've not far to roam;
Heav'nly gates will open wide,
Oh, soon I shall be home. [Chorus]
