1. We are pilgrims of a day,
Homeward bound, homeward bound;
Singing on our cheerful way,
We are homeward bound.
Refrain
Onward, upward still, O ye hopeful pilgrims;
Forward, fear no ill, yonder is our home;
We journey, hand in hand,
To Canaan’s happy land;
O come, ye friends and neighbors,
And join the pilgrim band.
2. We are happy in the Lord,
Trav’ling on, trav’ling on;
Trusting in His holy Word,
We are trav’ling on. [Refrain]
3. Sin and sorrow here below,
Soon will end, soon will end;
In the land to which we go,
Toil and care will end. [Refrain]
4. Working all the way along,
Rest will come, rest will come;
Lighten work with pray’r and song,
Blessèd rest will come. [Refrain]
