On this pilgrimage to the new jerusalem
And it's the highway of holiness
That gets me there
Start of the journey is
The day when I let the seed
Fall to the ground and the day that it dies
Is the day I start to climb

On this pilgrimage to the new jerusalem
And it's the highway of holiness
That gets me there
Every time I choose your way
Instead of going my own direction
Those are the times when I pour out my life
That you come to lead me along
Will you lead me on

And if I ever lose my hope
You're there to light the fire
You bring me everything I need
When you quietly, with the love you give
And you sing your songs all over me
And you tenderly, you lead me out of myself
And you walk with me

On this pilgrimage to the new jerusalem
And it's the small and the narrow gate
That gets me there
I know that many are called
But that only few are chosen
Those are the few that abandon themselves
To pursue your kingdom come
Your kingdom come

And if I ever lose my hope
You're there to light the fire
You bring me everything I need
When you quietly, with the love you give
And you sing your songs all over me
And you tenderly, you lead me out of myself
And you walk with me
And you walk with me
And you walk with me
And you walk with me

On this pilgrimage to the new jerusalem
It's forgetting all that lies behind
That gets me there
Pushing through the fear within
Running for every thought I have
Carefully moving closer and closer
To run my race in time
I have to get there in time

And if I ever lose my hope
You're there to light the fire
You bring me everything I need
When you quietly, with the love you give
And you sing your songs all over me
Yes you quietly, with the love you give
And you sing your songs all over me
And you tenderly, you lead me out of myself
And you walk with me
And you walk with me
And you walk with me
And you walk with me
