Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm just a poor wayfaring stranger
Travelin' through this world below
There is no sickness, no toil, nor danger
In that bright land to which I go
[Verse 2]
I'm goin' there to see my father
And all my loved ones who've gone on
I'm just goin' over Jordan
I'm just goin' over home
[Verse 3]
I know dark clouds will gather 'round me
I know my way is hard and steep
But beauteous fields arise before me
Where God's redeemed, their vigils keep
[Verse 4]
I'm goin' there to see my mother
She said she'd be meet me when I come
So, I'm just goin' over Jordan
I'm just goin' over home
[Verse 5]
I'm just goin' over Jordan
I'm just goin' over home
