Artist/Band: Emmylou Harris
Lyrics for Song: Wayfaring Stranger
Lyrics for Album: The Very Best of Emmylou Harris: Heartaches & High [2005]



(Traditional - Arr. Brian Ahern)



I am 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 goin' over Jordan

I'm only goin' over home.



--- Instrumental ---



I know dark clouds were headin' around me

I know my way is tough and steep

Yet beautious 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 goin' over Jordan

I'm only goin' over home...
