Me singing "Wayfaring Stranger"

Me singing Wayfaring Stranger on my 50th birthday. Slapped an old computer together with an old stereo and had some fun for a couple hours doing karaoke with the family.


LYRICS (my variation)

I am a poor wayfaring stranger
Traveling thru this world of woe
Yet there's no sorrow, toil or danger
in that bright land 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 Jordan
I'm only going over home

I know dark clouds will gather round me
I know my way is rough and steep
Yet gorgeous fields lie out 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

You are a natural. You have an easy on the ears voice, you could easily do Gospel songs.

Thanks a lot. I first played and sang this song after my oldest daughter died 11 years ago. I do Gospel songs with my guitar, I just don't have any movies of it. None of my videos was made specifically for Youtube. They're just rips from home movies, but maybe I will make a few Gospel songs just for Youtube one of these days. Thanks again.

You sing well and should tell the noisy distractors in the background to be quiet.
