I am a poor wayfaring stranger,
While traveling through this world of woe.
Yet there�s no sickness, toil nor 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.
Refrain

I�m only going over Jordan,
I�m only going over home.

I know dark clouds will gather round me;
I know my way is rough and steep.
But golden fields lie out before me
Where God�s redeemed shall ever sleep.
I�m going there to see my mother,
She said she�d meet me when I come.

Refrain

I�ll soon be free from every trial,
My body sleep in the churchyard;
I�ll drop the cross of self denial
And enter on my great reward.
I�m going there to see my Savior,
To sing His praise forevermore.

Refrain
