Traditional: I am a poor wayfaring stranger |
I am a poor wayfaring stranger, |
While traveling through this world of woe. |
Yet there??? |
s no sickness, toil nor 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 Jordan, |
I??? |
m only going over home. |
I know dark clouds will gather round me; |
I know my way is rough and steep. |
But golden fields lie out before me Where God??? |
s redeemed shall ever sleep. |
I??? |
m going there to see my mother, |
She said she??? |
d meet me when I come. |
I??? |
ll soon be free from every trial, |
My body sleep in the churchyard; |
I??? |
ll drop the cross of self denial |
And enter on my great reward. |
I??? |
m going there to see my Savior, |
To sing His praise forevermore. |
