- I'm just a poor wayfaring
stranger, Traveling through this world of woe.
There is no sickness, no toil, nor danger, In that bright land
to which I go.
I'm going there to see my father, 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.
- But beau-teous fields lie
just before me, Where God's redeemed their vigils keep.
- I'm going home to see my
mother, She said she'd meet me when I come.
- I'm only going over Jordan,
I'm only going over home.
