I am a poor wayfaring stranger
Travelling through this world of woe
But there痴 no sickness, toil or danger
In that bright land to which I go
Well I知 going there
To meet my mother
Said she壇 meet me when I come
I知 only going over Jordan
I知 only going over home
I know dark clouds
Will gather 喪ound me
I know my way
Will be rough and steep
But beautiful fields lie just before me
Where God痴 redeemed
Their vigils keep
Well I知 going there
To meet my loved ones
Gone on before me, one by one
I知 only going over Jordan
I知 only going over home
I値l soon be free of earthy trials
My body rest in the old church yard
I値l drop this cross of self-denial
And i値l go singing home to God
Well I知 going there
To meet my Savior
Dwell with Him and never roam
I知 only going over Jordan
I知 only going over home
