I'm going on a journey
I'm starting today
I'm going on a journey
It's the only way
And when I get to celestial city
Then I'm gonna shout hip, hip, hooray
I'm not turning back, now
I've started my race
Even if it's tough now
I'll walk the narrow way
And when I get to celestial city
Then I'm gonna shout hip, hip, hooray
Since I called to Jesus
And turned from my sin
When I felt forgiveness
I had a joy within
And when I get to celestial city
Then I'm gonna shout hip, hip, hooray
I'm on my way to heaven
Why don?t you come to
Even if you've made mistakes
He's willing to forgive you
And when I get to celestial city
Then I'm gonna shout hip, hip, hooray
hip, hip, hooray
I'm on my way
hip, hip, hooray
I'm on the pilgrim's way
