Original lyrics

EN

I am a poor, wayfaring stranger I'm traveling through this world of woe Yet there's no sickness, no toil, no 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 I'm only going over Jordan I'm only going over home I know dark clouds gather 'round me I know my way is rough and steep Yet golden fields lie just before me Where souls redeemed shall ever sleep 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 want to wear a crown of glory When I get home to that good land I want to shout down Satan's story In concert with the blood-washed band I'm going there to see my father He said he'd meet me when I come home I'm only going over Jordan I'm only going over home I'm going there to see my father He said he'd meet me when I come home I'm only going over Jordan I'm only going over home I'm only going over Jordan I'm only going over home I'm only going over home
