Sombre Fall, Burdened Winter / The Wayfaring Stranger (traditional)

In Vain

---

I'm just a poor wayfaring stranger
While traveling in this world of woe
Yet there's no sickness, toil nor 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
But golden fields lie out before me
Where God's redeemed shall ever sleep
I'm going home 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

I'll soon be free from every trial
This body sleep in that 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
I'm only going over Jordan
I'm only going over home
