16 Horsepower - Wayfaring Stranger Lyrics
I'm just a poor wayfaring strangerTravelin' through a world of woeAin't no sickness, toil, nor dangerIn that bright land to which i goI'm goin' there to see my fatherSaid he'd meet me when i comeI'm only goin' over jordanI'm only goin' over homeI know dark clouds gonna gather 'round meI know my way it'll be rough and steepYet beautiful fields lie just before meWhere god's redeemed did vigils keepI'm goin' there to see my loved onesGone before me one by oneI'm only goin' over jordanI'm only goin' over homeI'll soon be free from earthly trialsThis body rests in the orchard's yardI'll drop this cross of self-denialAnd go singing home to godI'm goin' there to see my saviorTo dwell with him no more to roamI'm only goin' over jordanI'm only goin' over homeI'm only goin' over home
