Wayfaring Stranger
I'm a poor wayfaring stranger
While traveling through this world of woe
Yet there is no sickness, toil, or danger
In that bright land to which I go
I'm going there to see my father
I'm going there no more to roam (no, no, no)
I'm only goin' over Jordan
I'm only goin' over home
I know dark clouds will gather 'round me
I know my way (I know my way) is rough and steep
Yet beauteous fields lie just before me (just before me)
Where God's redeemed, their vigils keep
I'm going there to see my mother
She said she'd meet me when I come
I'm only goin' (I'm only going) over Jordan
I'm only goin' over home
I'm only goin' over home
