I WAS JUST PASSING THROUGH
From Johnny to my loving wife Rosie
There isnothing more I could have asked than a long life,
Shared with a wonderful and beautiful wife.
I hated to leave but Paradise waits,
God will usher me into Paradise's gates.
You see I was a pilgrim...
I didn't come here to stay,
I was just passing through.
I have run this race, I fought a good fight,
I kept the Faith, I finished my course.
There is an appointment for me God has kept,
An appointment, I must accept.
I was a pilgrim,
I didn't come to stay,
I was just passing through,
Don't cry for me, I'm okay.
If you have not obeyed Christ, do it without delay,
Then surely I will see you all again one day.
So don't be sad, wipe the tears from your eyes,
In God's mercy on tomorrow the sun will rise.
I was just passing through,
Obey Christ and he will save you.
Rosie, my darling,
I know you will miss me,
And I will miss you too,
Here you must stay,
I'm going on to a place of reset without delay.
I didn't come here to stay,
I was a pilgrim,
I was just passing through.
