I Saw a Blood-Washed Pilgrim DELIVERANCE—Composer Unknown I Saw a Blood-Washed Pilgrim 1 I saw a blood-washed pilgrim, A sinner saved by grace, Upon the King’s great highway With peaceful, shining face; Temptations sore beset him, But nothing could affright; He said, “The yoke is easy, The burden, it is light.” Chorus Then palms of victory, crowns of glory, Palms of victory I shall wear. 2 I saw him in the furnace; He doubted not, nor feared, And in the flames beside him The Son of God appeared;
