I'm a pilgrim, and I'm a stranger

Author: Mary S. B. Dana Appears in 407 hymnals Topics: Miscellaneous Old Melodies Lyrics: 1 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, and I'm a stranger; I can tarry, I can tarry but a night. 2 There the glory is ever shining! O, my longing heart, my longing heart is there; Here in this country so dark and dreary, I long have wandered, forlorn and weary, 3 There's the city to which I journey; My Redeemer, my Redeemer is its light! There is no sorrow, nor any sighing, Nor any tears there, nor any dying. 4 Farewell, neighbors, with tears I've warned you, I must leave you, I must leave you, and be gone! With this your portion, your heart's desire, Why will you perish in raging fire? 5 Father, mother, and sister, brother! If you will not journey with me, I must go! Now since your vain hopes you will thus cherish, Should I too linger, and with you perish? 6 Farewell, drear earth, by sin so blighted, In immortal beauty soon you'll be arrayed; He who has formed thee, will soon restore thee, And then the dread curse shall never more be. Used With Tune: I'M A PILGRIM
