a pilgrim was i and a wandering

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
A pilgrim was I, and a’wandering,
In the cold night of sin I did roam,

When Jesus the kind Shepherd found me,
And now I am on my way home.
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.

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