Wayfarin' Stranger

I'm just a poor wayfaring stranger
Traveling through this world of woe
Yet there's no sickness, toil nor danger
In that bright land to which I go

I'm going there to see my mother
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
Yet golden fields lie just before me
Where God's redeemed shall never sleep

I'm going there to see my father
Said he'd meet me when I come
I'm only going over Jordan
I'm only going over home
