(Traditional - Arr. Brian Ahern) |
|
I am a poor wayfaring stranger |
|
While traveling through this world of woe |
|
Yet there's no sickness, toil or danger |
|
in that bright world to which I go. |
|
I'm going there to see my father |
|
I'm going there no more to roam |
|
I'm only goin' over Jordan |
|
I'm only goin' over home. |
|

|
I know dark clouds were headin' around me |
|
I know my way is tough and steep |
|
Yet beautious fields lie just before me |
|
Where God's redeemed their vigils keep. |
|
I'm going there to see my mother |
|
She said she'd meet me when I come |
|
I'm only goin' over Jordan |
|
I'm only goin' over home... |
