1. A pilgrim was I and awand'ring,
In the cold night of sin I did roam,
When Jesus the kind Shepherd found me,
And now I am on my way home.

R: Surely goodness and mercy
shall follow me all the days,
All the days of my life; [Repeat]

2. And I shall dwell in the house
Of the Lord forever,
And I shall feast at the table
Spread for me;
Surely good ness and mercy
Shall follow me all the days,
All the days of my life,
all the days, all the days of my life.

3. He restoreth my soul when i'm weary,
He giveth me strength day by day;
He leads me beside the still waters,
He guards me each step of the way.

4. When I walk thro' the dark, lonesome valley,
My Saviour will walk with me there;
And safely His great hand will leads me
To the mansions He's gone to prepare,
