GUEST,izzy	Origins: Wayfaring Stranger (55* d)	RE: Lyr Req: Wayfaring Stranger	30 Jan 11
My daddy was a Bluegrass player and he used to sing Wayfaring Stranger when I was little. He called it one of the original melodies. This is the version he always used to sing. I'm just a poor, wayfarin stranger Travellin through this world below There'll be no sin, no toil or danger In that fair land, to which I go I'm going there to see my mother She said she'd meet me when I come I'm just going over Jordan I'm only going over home What though dark clouds may hover o'er me What though the pathway's rough and steep Golden fields will lie before me And weary eyes, no more shall weep I'm going there to meet my Savior Who shed for me his precious blood I'm just going over Jordan I'm only going over home I'm just going over Jordan I'm only going over home I've gotta say, it's really interesting to see all of the different versions of this song.
