I left Destruction's gates behind
With a heavy heart and troubled mind
Evangelist showed the way so clear
But every step I took with fear
Through the Slough of Despond
I waded slow
The weight I carried sunk me low
But Help reached out and I was found
He guided me to solid ground
I've seen the road
From here to there
Through doubts and shadows
And through despair
But somehow grace has brought me to
A pilgrim's praise I sing to You
In every trial You've seen me through
A pilgrim's praise through joy and pain
With every step I'll praise Your name
With a pilgrim's praise
A pilgrim's praise
In Vanity Fair I lost my way
The glitter and gold led me astray
But Faithful stayed and helped me see
There's more to life than vanity
At Doubting Castle I fell so low
With Giant Despair no hope to show
Locked in the dark I found the key
The promise that set my spirit free
I've seen the road from here to there
Through doubts and shadows
And through despair
But somehow grace has brought me to
A pilgrim's praise I sing to You
In every trial You've seen me through
A pilgrim's praise through joy and pain
With every step I'll sing Your name
With a pilgrim's praise
A pilgrim's praise I sing to You
In every trial You've seen me through
A pilgrim's praise through joy and pain
With every step I'll sing Your name
With a pilgrim's praise
A pilgrim's praise
