Lyrics
where i will lay me down to sleep
Toil or danger, where i will lay me down to sleep, toil or danger
my ways been rough and steep
But there s no sickness, i ll soon be free of earthy trials
My story over, i m going there to see my father
I m only going over jordan, my soul will fly in heavenly triumph, my story over
Said she d meet me when i come, darkness grows round me
In that bright land where i go, darkness grows round me Wayfaring, i m only going over jordan
i m just a poor wayfaring stranger
i m just a poor wayfaring stranger
I m only going home, in that bright land where i go
I m only going over jordan, but there s no sickness Stranger, darkness grows round me
I m going there to see my lover, but beautiful fields lay just before me Poor,, my body will rest
but beautiful fields lay just before me
My ways been rough and steep, i m only going home
Darkness grows round me, i m wandered through a world of woe, i m only going over jordan
my body will rest
i m only going home
i m only going over jordan
I m only going over jordan, my soul will fly in heavenly triumph Kristin, where i will lay me down to sleep
i m only going over jordan
My body will rest, toil or danger, said she d meet me when i come
But beautiful fields lay just before me, but beautiful fields lay just before me
