Wouldn’t Take Nothing For My Journey Now
Written by: Jimmie Davis and Rusty Goodman
Chorus
Well, I wouldn’t take
nothin’ for my journey now
I’m, gonna 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
Verse
I
Well I started out
a-travellin’ for the Lord many years ago
I had a lot of heartaches,
met a lot of grief and woe
But when I would stumble,
then I would humble down
And I can say thank the Lord
I wouldn’t take nothin’ for my journey now
Repeat
Chorus
Verse
II
There’s nothin’ in the world
that’ll ever take the place of God’s love
Silver and gold could never
buy a mighty touch from up above
But when my soul needs a
healin’ and I begin to feelin’ His power
I can say thank the Lord I
wouldn’t take nothing for my journey now
Repeat Chorus,
then:
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’…..…
If I could still I wouldn’t
take nothin’ ….…
If I could still I wouldn’t
take nothin’ for my journey now
