English Lyrics
Verse 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
Chorus
I'm a pilgrim, and I'm a stranger; I can tarry, I can tarry but a night.
Verse 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.
Verse 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, or any dying.
