lyrics

I'm just a poor wayfaring stranger
Traveling through this land of woe
But there's no sickness toil nor danger
In that bright land to which I go
I'm going there to see my father
I'm going there, no more to roam
I'm only going over Jordan
I'm only going over home

I traveled back to the city of Angels
I met a man who tempted me
He said he'd share with me his secrets
And then he handed me the key
I'm going there to see my sisters
They said they'd meet me when I come
I'm only going over Jordan
I'm only going over home

I'm only going over Jordan
I'm only going over home

My sisters oh they tried to warn me
And how they begged of me to leave
But listen no, I would not hear them
And paid the price, eternally
I'm going there to see my mother
I'm going there, no more to roam
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 just before me
Where god's redeemed shall ever sleep
