I am a poor wayfaring stranger
Travelin through this world alone
There is no sickness toil nor danger
In that fair land to which I go
I m goin home to see my mother
I m goin home no more to roam
I am just goin over Jordan
I am just goin over home
( )
I know dark clouds will hover o er me
I know my pathway is rough and steep
What golden fields lie out before me
Where weary eyes no more will weap
I m goin home to see my father
I m goin home no more to roam
I am just goin over Jordan
I am just goin over home
( )
I ll soon be free from every trial
This form shall rest beneath the sun
I ll drop that cross of self denial
And enter in that home with God
I m goin home to see my saviour
I m goin home no more to roam
I am just goin over Jordan
I am just goin over home
