|
i'm just a poor wayfaring stranger
|
travelin' through a world of woe
|
ain't no sickness, toil, nor danger
|
in that bright land to which i go
|
|
i'm goin' there to see my father
|
said he'd meet me when i come
|
i'm only goin' over jordan
|
i'm only goin' over home
|
|
i know dark clouds gonna gather 'round me
|
i know my way it'll be rough and steep
|
yet beautiful fields lie just before me
|
where god's redeemed did vigils keep
|
|
i'm goin' there to see my loved ones
|
gone before me one by one
|
i'm only goin' over jordan
|
i'm only goin' over home
|
|
i'll soon be free from earthly trials
|
this body rests in the orchard's yard
|
i'll drop this cross of self-denial
|
and go singing home to god
|
|
i'm goin' there to see my savior
|
to dwell with him no more to roam
|
i'm only goin' over jordan
|
i'm only goin' over home
|
i'm only goin' over home
|
