I am a poor wayfarin' stanger
While traveling through this world of woe.
Yet there's no sickness, toil no danger
In that bright world to which I go.
I'm going there to see my father
I'm going there no more to roam;
I am just going over Jordan
I am just going over home.
I know dark clouds will gather o'er me
I know my way is rough and steep;
But yet green pastures lie before me
Where God's redeemed no more shall weep
I'm going there to see my mother
She said she'd meet me when I come
I am just going over Jordan
I am just going over home.
I'm going there to see my Savior
To sings his praise for evermore
I'm just a going over Jordan
I'm just a going over home
I'm just a going over Jordan
I'm just a going over home
I'm just a gain over Jordan
Over home.
