THE WAY WORN  TRAVELER 
   G                          D                 G
I saw a way worn traveler in tattered garments clad,
                                               D       G
And struggling up the mountain, it seemed that he was sad.
                              D                    G
His back was laden heavy, his strength was almost gone,
                                    D          G
It shouted as he journeyed, ''Deliverance will come!"
CHORUS:
G                      D         G
Then palms of victory, crowns of glory,
                 D
Palms of victory I shall wear.
    G                          D                 G
The summer sun was shining, the sweat was on his brow,
                                             D       G
His garments worn and dusty, his step seemed very slow.
                             D                    G
But he kept pressing onward, for he was wending home,
                                       D          G
Still shouting as he journeyed, "Deliverance will come!"
CHORUS:
G                      D         G
Then palms of victory, crowns of glory,
                 D
Palms of victory I shall wear.
      G                           D                 G 
The songstress in the arbor, that stood beside the way,
                                  D       G
Attracted his attention, inviting his delay.
                                  D                    G
His watchword being "Onward!" he stopped his ears and ran,
                                        D          G
Still shouting as he journeyed, ''Deliverance will come!"
CHORUS:
G                      D         G
Then palms of victory, crowns of glory,
                 D
Palms of victory I shall wear. 
      G                          D                 G
While gazing on that city, just o'er that narrow flood
                                       D       G
A band of holy angels came from the throne of God.
                                   D                    G
They bore him on their pinions, they bore the dashing foam,
                                     D          G
And joined him in his triumph, "Deliverance has come!"
CHORUS:
G                      D         G
Then palms of victory, crowns of glory,
                 D
Palms of victory I shall wear.
