Verse 2:
I know dark clouds will gather round me, I know my way is rough and steep
But golden field lie just before me, where souls redeemed, their vigil
keep
I'm going there to meet my mother She said she'd meet me when I come
I am just going over Jordan I am just going over home
Verse 3:
I'll soon be free from every trial, this form shall rest beneath the sod
I'll drop the cross of self-denial and enter in my home with God
I'm going there to meet my Savior He said He'd meet me when I come
I am just going over Jordan I am just going over home
