After The Fire - Pilgrim Lyrics




Narrator
One day as I lay down to rest
In a den for my safe keeping
I closed my eyelids for the best
And I quickly fell to sleeping
Was then I had the strangest dream
Which I shall now forthtell
All of a man who lived in fear
For the thought of going to hell!
I saw him reading from a book
And his legs they were a-shaking
The more he read the more he shook
Till I knew his heart was breaking
But I could not ask why he wept so
As I said, I was only dreaming
But I'm sure that for some means of escape
Was the way his mind was scheming

He looked around this way and that
As if to make a run
But the burden that was on his back
It surely weighed him down
And as he wept he cried out
"What must I do to be saved,
And to stop this burden from dragging me down
Even further than the grave?"

Evangelist
Head over there, you'll find a gate
Keep the light in your eye
That is the way of your escape
That is the way you must...
Head over there, you'll find a gate
Keep the light in your eye
That is the way of your escape
That is the way you must ... fly

Pilgrim
So I journeyed as a pilgrim
Never to return
Many dangers lay before me
Lessons I must learn

Up the highway of salvation
My burden there I lost
Fell away and rolled right from me
When I saw the cross

Then on an on I bravely went
Through the "Valley of Humiliation"
Was there I fought for my life
With the one that I used to serve
Then the "Valley of the Shadow
of Death" it hung over me
I never thought that I'd see the light of day again

Then I found a friend, oh what a friend
We travelled together
Till at "Vanity Fair" they
