Píseň: Pilgrim Of Sorrow

Interpret:: Sam Cooke
Album:: The Two Sides Of Sam Cooke

Lord I'm poor pilgrim of sorrow
 down on this world I'm alone
 I have no hope for tomorrow
 and I have no place that I can go
 sometimes, sometimes I'm so lonely
 sometimes I don't know what to do
 I look around to friends for consolation
 and I find that they have troubles too
 and I got sister and brothers
 they don't like me
 because I'm away from sin
 and I got good friends
 my best friends turn against me
 because I'm  trying so hard to win


 O Lord, O Lord
 come on Jesus, O  Lord
 sometimes I'm tossed and driven
 till I decided that I was wrong
 that's when I heard of a city called Glory
 and I try to make that city my home
