Where are you going to Pilgrim
Where the river carries the water of life
Where are you going, going
Where the forest's shadow passes away
The river flows with darkness
The candle light is pale
A danger path through meadows
Shedding burdens of doubt and fear

Where are you going to Pilgrim
Where the river carries the water of life
Where are you going, going
Where the forest's shadow passes away
What will you do there Pilgrim
I will fight with giants of despair and demons
What will you do there, do there
To desire a better place. A promised land

Where are you going to Pilgrim
Where the river carries the water of life
Where are you going, going
Where the forest's shadow passes away
What will you see there Pilgrim
All the wonder, heavenly realm,
City of joy, herald
What will you see there, see there
Host of angels splendid in our eyes

The distant trumpet sounding
Great Heart will light our way
The open door before us
Draw nearer to paradise

Where are you going to Pilgrim
Where the river carries the water of life
Where are you going, going
Where the forest's shadow passes away
What will you see there Pilgrim
All the wonder, heavenly realm,
City of joy, herald
What will you see there, see there
Host of angels splendid in our ey
