99. I'm a Little Pilgrim

1 I'm a little pilgrim,
And a stranger here;
Tho' this world is pleasant,
Sin is always near.

2 Mine's a better country,
Where there is no sin;
Where the tones of sorrow
Never enter in.

3 I'm a little pilgrim
Must have garments clean,
If he'd wear the white robes,
And with Christ be seen.

4 Jesus, cleanse and save me,
Teach me to obey;
Holy Spirit, guide me
On my heavenly way.
