Wayfaring Stranger
I'm just a poor
wayfaring stranger
Traveling thru
this world bellow
There is no sickness,
no toil, no danger
In that bright land
to which I go
I'm going there to see my father
And all my loved ones, who've gone old
I'm just goin' over Jordan
I'm just goin' over home
I know dark clouds
will gather 'round me,
I know my way
is hard and steep
But beauteous fields
aries before me
Where God's redeemed their virgils keep
I'm going there to see my mother
She said she'd meet me when I come
So I'm just goin' over Jordan
I'm just goin' over home
I'm just goin' over Jordan
I'm just goin' over home
