A pilgrim was I and a-wand'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
Chorus:
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days all the days of my life
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days all the days of my life
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 (Chorus)
When I walk thro' the dark lonesome valley
My Savior will walk with me there
And safely His great hand will lead me
To the mansions He's gone to prepare (Chorus)
