Primeira Parte
I’m just a poor wayfaring stranger
Traveling through this world below
There’s no sickness
No, toil, nor danger
In that bright land
To which I go
Refrão 1
I’m going there to see my father
And all my loved ones
Who’ve gone home
I’m just going over Jordan
I’m just go___ing over home
Segunda Parte
I know dark clouds will gather 'round me
I know my way is hard and steep
But beauteous fields arise before me
Where God’s redeemed
Their vigils keep
Refrão 2
I’m going there to see my mother
She said she’d meet me when I come
So I’m just going over Jordan
I’m just go___ing over home
I’m just going over Jordan
I’m just go___ing over home
