[Verse 1]
| I am a poor wayfaring stranger,
| While journeying through,
| This world of woe,
| Yeah, and there's no sickness,
| toil nor danger,
| In that bright land,
| To which i go.
|
| [Chorus]
| I'm going there to see my Father,
| I'm going there,
| No more to roam,
| I'm only go,
| Going over jordan,
| I'm only go,
| Going over home.
|
| [Verse 2]
| I know dark clouds,
| Will gather on me,
| I know my way,
| My way is rough and steep,
| Yeah, and beautiful fields,
| Lie just before me,
| And God's redeemed
| Their vigils keep.
|
| [Chorus]
| I'm going there to see my Father,
| I'm going there,
| No more to roam,
| I'm only go,
| Going over jordan,
| I'm only go,
| Going over home.
|
| I'm going there to see my Mother,
| I'm going there,
| No more to roam,
| I'm only go,
| Going over jordan,
| I'm only go,
| Going over home.
|
| [Verse 3]
| I want to wear,
| That crown of glory,
| When I get home,
| To that good land,
| Well, I want to shout,
| Salvation's story,
| In concert with,
| All the blood-washed band.
|
| [Chorus]
| I'm going there to see my Saviour,
| I'm going there,
| No more to roam,
| I'm only go,
| Going over jordan,
| I'm only go,
| Going over home,
| Well, I'm only go,
| Going over home,
| Yeah, only....[repeat till fade]
