[Verse 1]
E      B7            E
I am a pilgrim and a stranger
          A7                      E
Traveling through this wearisome land
                      E7           A7
And I've got a home in that yonder city, good Lord
         E                    B7               E
And it's not (good Lordy it's not) not made by hand

[Verse 2]
E       B7                     E
I got a mother, a sister and a brother
         A7                 E
Who have gone to that sweet home
                       E7     A7
And I am determined to go and see them, good Lord
     E                   B7               E
Over on (good Lordy over on) that distant shore

[Verse 3]
E       B7                 E
As I go down to that river Jordan
        A7             E
Just to bathe my weary soul
                 E7           A7
If I could touch but just the hem of His garment, good Lord
    E                      B7                          E
I believe (good Lordy I believe) that it would make me whole

[Verse 4]
E            B7                 E
Now when I'm dead, laying in my coffin
          A7                 E
All of my friends all gather round
                  E7        A7
They can say that he's just laying there sleeping, good Lord
      E                  B7                 E
Sweet peace (Lordy sweet peace) his soul is found
