[00:28.07]I am a poor wayfaring stranger
[00:34.95]travelling through this world of woe
[00:41.70]but there's no sickness, toil or danger
[00:48.57]in that bright land to which I go
[00:55.20]well I'm going there
[00:58.88]to meet my mother
[01:02.45]said she've meet me when I come
[01:09.95]I'm only going over Jordan
[01:16.82]I'm only going over home
[01:21.45]
[01:36.76]I know dark clouds
[01:39.95]will gather round me I know my way
[01:46.89]will be rough and steep
[01:50.32]but beautiful fields lie just before me
[01:57.32]where God's redeemed
[02:00.64]their vigils keep
[02:03.95]well I'm going there
[02:07.32]to meet my loved ones
[02:10.70]gone on before me, one by one
[02:16.51]
[02:18.07]I'm only going over Jordan
[02:20.89]
[02:24.70]I'm only going over home
[02:29.07]
[03:02.57]I'll soon be free of earthy trials
[03:09.46]my body rest in the old church yard
[03:16.32]I'll drop this cross of self-denial
[03:23.39]and I'll go singing home to God
[03:29.58]well I'm going there
[03:33.08]to meet my Savior
[03:37.14]dwell with Him and never roam
[03:43.45]I'm only going over Jordan
[03:51.01]I'm only going over home
