Well, I wouldn't take nothin' for my journey now
I gotta make it to Heaven somehow
Though the devil tempts me and tries to turn me around
He's offered everything that's got a name
All the wealth I want and worldly fame
If I could, still, I wouldn't take nothin' for my journey now

I started out traveling
For the Lord many years ago
I met a lot of heartache
I had a lot of grief and woe, whoa...
And when I would stumble
Then I would humble down
And I'd say, "Thank You, Lord
I wouldn't take nothin' for my journey now"

Well, I wouldn't take nothin' for my journey now
I gotta make it to Heaven somehow
Though the devil tempts me and tries to turn me around
He's offered everything that's got a name
All the wealth I want and worldly fame
If I could, still, I wouldn't take nothin' for my journey now

There ain't nothin' in the world
That could ever take the place of God's love
Silver and gold could never buy
A mighty touch from above
And when my soul needs healin'
And I begin to feelin' His power
And I say, "Thank You, Lord
I wouldn't take nothin' for my journey now"
