A Poor Wayfaring Stranger

Cat. #1355 (MFH #678) - As sung by Beaula Boskins, Reeds Spring, Missouri on July 11, 1969

VERSE 1
I'm just a poor wayfaring stranger
I'm traveling thru this world of woe
But there's no sickness, toil or danger
In that bright land to where I go
I'm going there to see my Father
I'm going there no more to roam
I'm just going over Jordan
I'm just a going over home

VERSE 2
I'm just a poor wayfaring stranger
I'm traveling thru this world of woe
But there's no sickness, toil or danger
In that bright world to which I go
I'm going there to see my Mother
I'm going there no more to roam
I'm just a going over Jordan
I'm just a going over home
