[Chorus]
I'm a pilgrim, I'm a stranger
Traveling through this barren land
I have a home in yonder city
[?] friend of man

[Verse 1]
I have a mother and a father
Sister and brother whom I miss
By and by I'm going to meet them
Where no farewell tears are shed

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm a pilgrim and I'm a stranger
Traveling through this barren land
I have a home in yonder city
[?] friend of man

[Verse 2]
Now, life is like a mountain railroad
With an engineer that's brave
Keep your hand upon the throttle
And your eyes upon the rail

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm a pilgrim, I'm a stranger
Traveling through this barren land
I have a homе in yonder city
[?] friend of man
[Verse 3]
As you roll across the trеstle
Spanning Jordan's swelling tide
And behold the Union Station
Into which your train will glide

[Chorus]
'Cause I'm a pilgrim, I'm a stranger
Traveling through this barren land
I have a home in yonder city
[?] friend of man
