Johnny Cash - Wayfaring Stranger

Wayfaring Stranger

Johnny Cash

I'm a poor wayfaring stranger

While traveling thru this world below

There's no sickness, no toil, nor danger

In that bright land to which I go

I'm going there to see my father

And all my loved ones who've gone old

I'm just going over Jordan

I'm just going over home

I know dark clouds will gather around

I know my way is hard and steep

But beauteous fields arise before me

Where God's redeemed their virgils keep

I'm going there to see my mother

She said she'd meet me when I come

So I'm just going over Jordan

I'm just going over home
