[Verse 1]
I'm a far wayfaring stranger
Travelling through this world of ours
But there is no sickness, toil or danger
In that dry land to where I'm going
[Chorus]
I'm going there to see my mother
She say she need me when I come
I'm only goin' over Jordan
I'm only goin' over home
[Verse 2]
I know dark clouds will gather around
I know my way is rough and steep
But it feels like just before me
Where God's redeem the rituals keep
[Chorus]
Going there to see my brother
Say he need me when I come
I'm only goin over Jordan
I'm only going yah over home
I'm going there to see my father
Say he need me when I come
I'm only goin over Jordan
I'm only goin over home
I'm only goin over home (can you say it one more time)
I'm only goin over home
Going home
