I'm a poor wayfaring stranger While traveling thru this world of woe Yet there's no sickness, toil or danger In that bright world to witch I go I'm going there to see my Father I'm going there no more to roam I'm only going over Jordan I'm only going over home I know dark clouds gonna gather 'round me I know my way be rough and steep Yet beauteous fields lie just before me Where Guds redeemed their vigils keep I'm going there to see my sister She said she meet me when I come I'm only going over Jordan I'm only going over home I'm going there to meet my savior To sing His praise forever more I'm only going over Jordan I'm only going over home I'm only going over home I'm only going over home
