aka "Surely I Will". It was adapted into an African-American gospel song called "I'm Bound for Mount Zion" with similar lyrics but a different tempo.
If working and praying has any reward,
Then surely some morning, I'll meet my dear Lord;
With God as my pilot, I'll climb the high hill,
If anyone makes it, then surely I will.
CHORUS (of "Surely I Will")
Surely I will, Lord; surely I will.
If anyone makes it, precious Lord,
Then surely I will.
I am bound for Mount Zion,
Far away on the hill,
If anyone makes it, (all the way home) then surely I will. - Published by
