LYRICS:

I am a poor wayfaring stranger
While traveling through, this world of woe.
But there's no sickness, 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 just a going over Jordan
I'm just a going over home.

I know dark clouds will gather round me
I know my way is rough and steep;
Yet beauteous fields lie just before me
Where God's redeemed, no more shall weep
I'm going there to see my mother
She said she'd meet me when I come;
I'm just a going over Jordan
I'm just a going over home.

I'll soon be free from earthly trials,
my body sleep in the old church yard,
I'll drop the cross of self denial and enter in my great reward,

I'm going, I'm going there to see my savior
I'm going there no more to room,
I'm just a going over jordan.
I'm just a going over home.

Over Home, Over Home.....I'm just a going over home.

Music is so powerful it needs to be used for redeeming work, to lift people's spirits and lift their souls. Hope you find some of this in my music.

Peter Hollens, Swingle, Singers, Tom Anderson, Cover, A cappella, acapella, acappella
