about

Traditional
Roud Folk Song Index #3339
The lyrics were published in 1858 in Bever's Christian Songster, No. 23 p. 34, with the title "Going Over Jordan". The song may also be found in a form closer to our rendition in C. H. Cayce, The Good Old Songs, Thornton, Arkansas, published 1914.

lyrics

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 going over Jordan
I'm only going over home.

I know dark clouds will gather round me,
I know the way is rough and steep
But beauteous fields lie just before me
Where the 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.

Eulalie Cleveland Heights, Ohio

Eulalie (pronounce it "YOU-la-lee")
True blue. Guaranteed 100% irony-free.

Hauntingly stark, sweetly sentimental, or just plain fun,
these old songs tell the stories of people's lives.
Ron & Donna treat these treasures with the love and respect of honest, straightforward arrangements inspired by the old masters of parlor, dance hall, and backwoods.
