歌词与中文翻译
I am a poor wayfaring stranger
我是一个可怜的流浪异乡人
I'm travelling through this world of woe
穿行于这个充满悲哀的世界
Yet there's no sickness, toil, nor danger
然而有个地方没有疾病、艰辛，也无危险
In that bright land to which I go
在那片我即将前往的光明土地
I'm going there to see my Father
我要去那里见我的天父
I'm going there, no more to roam
我要去那里 不再游荡
I'm only going over Jordan
我只想要越过约旦河
I'm only going over home
我只想要回到家乡
我知道乌云会笼罩着我
I know dark clouds will gather 'round me
我知道我的路崎岖险峻
I know my way is rough and steep
但金色的原野就在我的前方
But golden fields lie just before me
被上帝救赎之人将长眠于此
Where God's redeemed shall ever sleep
我要去那里探望我的母亲
I'm going home to see my mother
以及我所有已前往的亲人
And all my loved ones who've gone on
我只想要越过约旦河
I'm only going over Jordan
我只想要回到家乡
I'm only going over home
我将很快从每次审判中得到解脱
我的遗体会长眠在教堂墓地
I'll soon be free from every trial
我将放下自我否定的十字架
My body sleep in the churchyard
并得到我的丰厚奖赏
I'll drop the cross of self-denial
我要去那里见我的救世主
And enter on my great reward
去永远歌颂赞美他
I'm going there to see my Savior
我只想要越过约旦河
To sing His praise forevermore
我只想要回到家乡
I'm only going over Jordan
I'm only going over home
