Don't be weary, traveler,
Come along home to Jesus;
Don't be weary, traveler,
Come along home to Jesus.

My head got wet with the midnight dew,
Come along home to Jesus;
Angels bear me witness too,
Come along home to Jesus.
refrain

And where to go I did not know,
Come along home to Jesus;
Ever since he freed my soul,
Come along home to Jesus.
refrain

I look at de worl' and de worl' look new,
Come along home to Jesus;
He has called me, it is true,
Come along home to Jesus.
