I'm just a poor wayfaring stranger
|
I'm traveling through this world of woe
|
Yet there's no sickness, toil nor danger
|
In that bright land to which I go
|
|
I'm going there to see my mother
|
I'm going there no more to roam
|
I'm only going over Jordan
|
I'm only going over home
|
|
I know dark clouds will gather 'round me
|
I know my way is rough and steep
|
Yet golden fields lie just before me
|
Where God's redeemed shall ever sleep
|
|
I'm going there to see my father
|
He said he'd meet me when I come
|
I'm only going over Jordan
|
I'm only going over home
|
|
I want to wear a crown of glory
|
When I get home to that good land
|
I want to shout salvation's story
|
In concert with the blood-washed band
|
|
I'm going there to meet my Saviour
|
To sing his praise forever more
|
I'm just a going over Jordan
|
I'm just a going over home
|
