City Called Heaven

Hymnal: Songs of Zion #135 (1981) First Line: I am a poor pilgrim of sorrow Lyrics: 1 I am a poor pilgrim of sorrow, I'm tossed in this wide world alone, No hope have I for tomorrow, I've started to make heav'n my home. Sometimes I am tossed and driven, Lord, Sometimes I don't know where to roam, I've heard of a city called heaven, I've started to make it my home. 2 My mother has reached that pure glory, My father's still walkin' in sin, My brothers and sisters won't own me, Because I am tryin' to get in. Sometimes I am tossed and driven, Lord, Sometimes I don't know where to roam, I've heard of a city called heaven, I've started to make it my home. Topics: Negro Spirituals and Afro-American Liberation Songs Languages: English Tune Title: [I am a poor pilgrim of sorrow]
