Walk the Pilgrim Way


In the light of the unseen there are glories to be found

If I cast my eyes to heaven yes to heaven where I’m bound

Put my back into to the plough and never turn around

Here I will covet nothing but to till the hallowed ground


Lord I am a pilgrim walking on a pilgrim way

Lord the path is narrow and I must walk it every day

Got no time for detours, got no passage to pay

Lord please help this pilgrim as I walk this pilgrim way


An alien and stranger as I sojourn on this road

Can’t take possessions with me so lay down that heavy load

Seeking for that city that’s to come for my abode

I will follow onward, I’ll not kick against the goad


Lord I am a pilgrim walking on a pilgrim way

Lord the path is narrow and I must walk it every day

Got no time for detours, got no passage to pay

Lord please help this pilgrim as I walk this pilgrim way


I’m a pilgrim and a stranger travelin’ in this weary land

And I’m a-searching for that city that is not made by hand

That city’s built upon the rock and not on shifting sand

There is glory when I get there where I can boldly stand


Lord I am a pilgrim walking on a pilgrim way

Lord the path is narrow and I must walk it every day

Got no time for detours, got no passage to pay

Lord please help this pilgrim as I walk this pilgrim way

Lord I am a pilgrim walking on a pilgrim way

Lord I am a pilgrim walking on a pilgrim way


For here we have no lasting city,  but we seek the city that is to come. 

Hebrews 13:14
