The Wayfaring Stranger (song)

"I'm just a po journ'en stranger Pass'en through dis world o' woe There is no sickness, no toil, no danger In dat fair land to where I go I'm goin de'r to see my Father And all my loved ones who' gone on I'm just goin over Jordan I'm just goin over home."

"I'm just a poor wayfaring stranger Traveling through this world below And there's no sickness, no toil, no danger In that fair 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'm just a poor wayfaring stranger Traveling through this world of woe And there's no sickness, no toil, no danger In that fair land to which I go I'm going there to see my mother I'm going there no more to roam"

"I am a poor wayfaring stranger While traveling through this land of woe. There'll be no sickness, toil or danger in that bright land to which i'll go. Going there to meet my savior... going there to no more to roam. I'm only going over Jordan I'm just going over home I know dark clouds will gather around me But i'll be home in a little while... I know His sweet love will surround me, and He will walk with me each mile."

"This song has been around for over 200 hundred years blessing millions of Americans in both the secular and the religious world. It is difficult if not impossible to pinpoint the exact origin of this North American folk song... Some historians saying that they can trace this song to the 1780s while others trace to the early 1800s... Some people think that is a reworked Negro spiritual... this song...one of the most loved gospel folk songs in America."
