〈Intro〉
I am a pilgrim and a stranger
Traveling through

〈Verse 1〉
I am a pilgrim and a stranger
Traveling through this wearisome land
I got a home in that yonder city, good Lord
(And it's not) Good Lordy, well, it's not, not made by hand (Not made by hand)

〈Verse 2〉
I got a mother, a sister and a brother
Who have gone (Gone, gone) to that sweet home (Home, sweet home)
I am determined to go and see them, good Lord
(Over on) Good Lordy, over on that other shore

〈Bridge〉
I am a pilgrim and a stranger
Traveling through this wearisome land
I got a home in that yonder city, good Lord
And it's not, not made by hand

〈Verse 3〉
I'm going down to the river of Jordan
Just to bathe my (Yes, yes) weary soul (My weary soul)
If I could touch but the hem of His garment, good Lord
(Then I know) Good Lordy, well, I know it'd take me home (Oh, take me home)
