To Be a Pilgrim
Hit it, Maddy! John Bunyan’s hymn, To Be a Pilgrim, performed by Maddy Prior and the Carnival Band. I love this song and can’t imagine why it’s been so long since I’ve posted it.
Also known (and sung!) as He Who Would Valiant Be.
‘To Be a Pilgrim’
Please indulge me. I love this hymn, it never fails to stir my soul: To Be a Pilgrim, by John Bunyan (aka He Who Would Valiant Be). Sung by Maddy Prior and the Carnival Band.
We are all pilgrims in this age; and the Father will reward us if we don’t turn back.
‘He Who Would Valiant Be’
I haven’t posted this hymn in a long time, too long: He Who Would Valiant Be. It’s a 1906 modification, by Percy Dreemer in 1906, of John Bunyan’s 17th century hymn, To Be a Pilgrim. It never fails to stir my spirit.

I Think I Ought to Post This: ‘To Be a Pilgrim’
My wife thought she heard me listening to this hymn, this morning. I wasn’t: and yet my stats board showed four hits for it. To Be a Pilgrim, by John Bunyan, sung by Maddy Prior and the Carnival Band–yeah, okay, heed the promptings of the Spirit.
