Wayfaring Stranger

I'm just a poor wayfaring stranger,

Travelin' Through this World Of Woe

Ain't No Sickness, Toil, Nor Danger

In That Bright Land To Which I Go

I'm Goin' There To See My Father

Said He'd Meet Me When I Come

I'm Just (a) Goin' Over Jordan

I'm Just (a) Goin' Over Home.

I Know Dark Clouds Gonna Gather 'Round Me

I Know My Way Be Rough And Steep

These Beautiful Fields Lie Just Before Me

Where God's Redeemed their Vigils Keep

I'm Goin' There To See My Loved Ones

Gone Before Me One By One

I'm Just (a) Goin' Over Jordan

I'm Just (a) Goin' Over Home.

I'll Soon Be Free From These Earthly Trials

This Body Rest In Your Orchard Yard

I'll Drop This Cross Of Self-Denial

And I'll Go Singing Home To God

I'm Goin' There To See My Savior

To Dwell With Him No More To Roam

I'm Just (a) Goin' Over Jordan

I'm Just (a) Goin' Over Home.
