Wayfaring Stranger

I'm just a poor
wayfaring stranger
travelling through
this world below
there is no sickness
no toil, nor danger
in that bright land
to which I go

I'm going there
to see my father
and all my loved ones
who've gone on
I'm just going over jordan
I'm just going over home

I know dark clouds
will gather round me
I know my way
is hard and steep
but beatious fields
arise before me
where God's redeemed
there vigils keep

I'm going there
to see my mother
she said she'd meet me
when I come
so I'm going over jordan
I'm just going over home
I'm just going over jordan
I'm just going over home

(Johnny Cash)
