I’m a lonely traveller here,
Weary oppresssd
But my journey’s end is near,
Soon shall I rest;
Dark and dreary is the way,
Toiling I come;
Ask me not with you to stay,
Yonder’s my home.
I’m a traveller to a land
Where all is fair;
Where are seen no broken bands,
All, all are there;
Where no tears shall ever fall,
No heart be sad;
Where the glory is for all,
And all are glad.
I’m a traveller; call me not;
Upward’s my way;
Yonder is my rest and lot;
I can not stay.
Farewell earthly pleasures all;
Pilgrim I’ll roam;
Hail me not; in vain you call;
Yonder’s my home.
