LyicsWhither goest thou, pilgrim stranger,
Passing thro' this darksome vale?
Know'st thou not 't is full of danger,
And will not thy courage fail?
I am bound for the kingdom,
Will you go to glory with me?
Hallelujah! O, praise ye the Lord.
Pilgrim! see that stream before thee,
Darkly winding thro' the vale;
Should its deadly waves roll o'er thee,
Would not then thy courage fail?
No, I'm bound for the kingdom,
Will you go to glory with me?
Hallelujah! O, praise ye the Lord.
No, that stream has nothing frightful,
To its bank my steps I bend;
There to plunge will be delightful,
Then my pilgrimage will end.
For I'm bound for the kingdom,
Will you go to glory with me?
Hallelujah! O, praise ye the Lord.
