Wayfaring Stranger

I am a poor wayfaring stranger Traveling through this land of woe There'll be no sadness, toil or danger In that bright land to which I go I'm going home to see my father He said he'll meet me when I come I'm just going over Jordan I'm just going, I'm just going I'm going over home I know dark clouds will gather around me I know my way is rough and steep Yet beauteous fields lie just beyond me Where souls redeemed their vigil keep I'm going there to see my mother She said she'd meet me when I come I'm just going over Jordan I'm just going, I'm going over home I am a poor wayfaring stranger Traveling through this world alone There'll be no sadness, toil, or danger In that bright land to which I go I'm going home to see my sister She said she'd meet me, meet me when I come I'm just going over Jordan I'm just going, I'm just going over I'm going over home
