wayfaring stranger

Eva Cassidy - Wayfaring Stranger

I am a poor wayfaring stranger
While journeying through this world of woe
Yet theres no sickness, toil, nor danger
In that bright land to which I go

Im going there to see my Father
Im going there no more to roam
Im only going over Jordan
Im only going over home

I know dark clouds will gather round me
I know my way is rough and steep
Yet beautiful fields lie just before me
Where Gods redeemed, there vigils keep

Im going there to see my mother
Im going there no more to roam
Im only going over Jordan
Im only going over home

I want to wear a crown of glory
When I get home to that good land
I want to shout salvations story
In concert with the blood-washed band

Im going there to see my Savior
Im going there no more to roam
Im only going over Jordan
Im only going over home

Im only going over Jordan
Im only going over home
