Wayfaring Stranger

Wayfaring Stranger -16Horsepower

Written by ：Horsepower/16

I am just a poor wayfaring stranger

Traveling through a world of woe

Ain't no sickness toil nor danger

In that bright land to which I go

I'm goin'there to see my father

Said he'd meet me when I come

I'm only goin'over Jordan

I'm only goin'over home

I know dark clouds gonna gather 'round me

I know my way'll be rough and steep

Yet beautiful fields lye just before me

Where god's redeemed their vigils keep

I'm goin'there to see my loved ones

Gone before me one by one

I'm only goin'over Jordan

I'm only goin'over home

I'll soon be free from earthly trials

This body rest in the ol'churchyard

I'll drop this 'cross of self denial

And go singing home to god

I'm goin'there to see my savior

To dwell with him no more to roam

I'm only goin'over Jordan

I'm only goin'over home

I'm only goin'over home
