There's nothin' in the world that can ever take the place of God's love
Silver and gold could never buy His love from above
When the soul needs healin' and I begin to feelin' His power
I can say, "Thank the Lord, I wouldn't take nothin' for my journey now”

Well, I wouldn't take nothin' for my journey now
I've got to make it to Heaven somehow
Though the devil tempts and he 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

Well, I started out traveling for the Lord many years ago
I've had a lot of heartaches, made a lot of grief and woes
And when I was stumble then I would humble down
And then I'll say, “I wouldn't take nothin' for my journey now"

Well, I wouldn't take nothin' for my journey now
I've got to make it to Heaven somehow
Though the devil tempts and he 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

Well, I wouldn't take nothin' for my journey now
I've got to make it to Heaven somehow
Though the devil tempts and he 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
If I could still I wouldn't take nothin' for my journey now
