Will you walk next to me
Down this narrow road
It's dark soon and I don't believe
We have far to go
Cause my tired eyes can see those who've gone before me
And their light will carry me home
But if I don't have to
I'd rather not walk alone

Pilgrim, all that you've worked for
Ain't far away
So lay down, and rest at the end
of the longest day

Go down, down to the river
And wash your hands
And we shall press on ahead
To the Promised Land
And I know we'll be safe ‘cause we'll stand at the gate and knock ‘till they open it wide
I'll stand ten times as tall
When you're by my side

Pilgrim, all that you've worked for
Ain't far away
So lay down, and rest at the end
of the longest day

Come early dawn, I will have to move on
I'll leave with you all that I have
‘Cause for a sweet few miles
I've not been such a lonely man
