Wayfaring Stranger Songtext / Lyric

Wayfaring StrangerGary Floyd



I am a poor wayfaring stranger

Wandering through this world of woe

There's no sickness, toil or danger

In that bright land to where I go



I'm going home to see my mother

She said she meet me when I come

I'm only going over Jordan

I'm only going to my home






I'll soon be free from every trial

My body is free in the old graveyard

I'll drop the cross of self denial

And enter to my great reward



I'm going home to see my father

I'm going there no more to roam

I'm only going over Jordan

I'm only going to my home



I am a poor wayfaring stranger

Wandering through this world of woe

There's no sickness, toil or danger

In that bright land to where I go



I'm going home to see my mother

She said she meet me when I come

I'm only going over Jordan

I'm only going to my home

I'm only going to my home
