Wayfarin’ Stranger

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
I know dark clouds will gather around me
I know my way is rough and steep
Yet golden fields lie just before me
Where god's redeemed shall ever sleep

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 3]
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

[Chorus]
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
