Wayfaring Stranger
I'm just a poor wayfaring stranger
I'm travelling through
Oh this land of woe
There is no sicknes
And no toil nor danger
In that bright land
To which I go
I'm going there
Ah, to see my father
And all my loved ones
Who've gone home
I'm just going
Well, over the Jordan
Well, I'm just a going
Over home
I know dark clouds
Are gather 'round me
I know my way
It is rough and steep
But beauteous fields
Lie out before me
Where gods redeemed
Shall ever sleep
I'm going there
Ah, to see my mother
She said she'd meet me
Oh, when I come
I'm just going
Well, over Jordan
Well I'm just a going
Over home
I'll soon be free
Ah, from every trial
My body sleeps
Down in the churchyard
I'll drop the cross
Of self denial
And enter on
Oh my great reward
I'm going there
Ah, to see my saviour
And to sing his praise
Ah forevermore
I'm just going
Well, over Jordan
Well, I'm just a going
Over home
Well, I'm just a going
Well, over Jordan
Well, I'm just a going
Over home
I'm travelling through
Oh this land of woe
There is no sicknes
And no toil nor danger
In that bright land
To which I go
I'm going there
Ah, to see my father
And all my loved ones
Who've gone home
I'm just going
Well, over the Jordan
Well, I'm just a going
Over home
I know dark clouds
Are gather 'round me
I know my way
It is rough and steep
But beauteous fields
Lie out before me
Where gods redeemed
Shall ever sleep
I'm going there
Ah, to see my mother
She said she'd meet me
Oh, when I come
I'm just going
Well, over Jordan
Well I'm just a going
Over home
I'll soon be free
Ah, from every trial
My body sleeps
Down in the churchyard
I'll drop the cross
Of self denial
And enter on
Oh my great reward
I'm going there
Ah, to see my saviour
And to sing his praise
Ah forevermore
I'm just going
Well, over Jordan
Well, I'm just a going
Over home
Well, I'm just a going
Well, over Jordan
Well, I'm just a going
Over home
