Wayfaring Stranger Lyrics - Patty Griffin

I'm a poor wayfaring stranger 

While traveling through this world of woe 

Yet there's no sickness, toil, or danger 

In that bright world to which I go 

I'm going there to see my father 

I'm going there no more to roam 

I'm only going over to Jordan 

I'm only going over home 

I know dark clouds will hang 'round me, 

I know my way is rough and steep 

Yet beauteous fields lie just before me 

Where God's redeemed their vigils keep 

I'm going there to see my mother 

She said she'd meet me when I come 

I'm only going over Jordan 

I'm only going over home 

Traditional Hymn
