I am Seekin' for a City

I am seekin' for a city, Hallelujah,
For a city into de heaven, Hallelujah,
Oh, bredren, trabbel wid me, Hallelujah,
Say will you along wid me? Hallelujah.

Refrain.

Lord, I don't feel noways tired,
Oh, glory, Hallelujah,
Hope to shout glory when dis world is on fiah,
Oh, glory, Hallelujah!

We will trabbel on together, Hallelujah,
Gwine to war agin de debbel, Hallelujah,
Gwine to pull down Satan's kingdom, Hallelujah,
Gwine to build de walls o' Zion, Hallelujah.

Dere is a better day a-comin', Hallelujah,
When I leave dis world o' sorrer, Hallelujah,
For to jine de holy number, Hallelujah,
Den we'll talk de trouble ober, Hallelujah.

Gwine to walk about in Zion, Hallelujah,
Gwine to talk-a wid de angels, Hallelujah,
Gwine to tell God 'bout my crosses, Hallelujah,
Gwine to reign wid Him foreber.
