I am a poor wayfaring stranger
               Jos Slovick


I am a poor wayfaring stranger
I'm travelling through this world of woe
Yet there's no sickness, toil, nor danger
In that bright land 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 my way is rough and steep
But golden fields lie just before me
Where God's redeemed shall ever sleep

I'm going home to see my mother
And all my loved ones who've gone on
I'm only going over Jordan
I'm only going over home

I am a poor wayfaring stranger
I'm travelling through this world of woe
Yet there's no sickness, toil, nor danger
In that bright land 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
我是個窮苦的 徒步趕路的異鄉人
               喬斯斯洛維克


我是一個窮苦的、徒步趕路的異鄉人
我行經災厄遍地的塵世
我要去的光明大地
那兒沒有病痛、勞苦和險阻

我要回去探望父親
我要回去,不再流浪
我只是想越過約旦河
我只是想回家而已

我知道烏雲將籠罩著我
我明白這一路上崎嶇陡峭
但金色田野就鋪展在我面前
那是上帝救贖的子民永遠沉睡之處

我就要回家探望母親
還有所有我愛過的親人
我只是想越過約旦河
我只是想回家而已

我是一個窮苦的、徒步趕路的異鄉人
我行經災厄遍地的塵世
我要去的光明大地
那兒沒有病痛、勞苦和險阻

我要回去探望父親
我要回去,不再流浪
我只是想越過約旦河
我只是想回家而已

Wayfaring stranger  Johnny Cash

I'm just a poor wayfaring stranger
Traveling through this world below
There is no sickness, no toil, nor danger
In that bright land to which I go

I'm going there to see my Father
And all my loved ones who've gone on
I'm just going over Jordan
I'm just going over home

I know dark clouds will gather 'round me
I know my way is hard and steep
But beauteous fields arise before me
Where God's redeemed, their vigils keep

I'm going there to see my Mother
She said she'd meet me when I come
So, I'm just going over Jordan
I'm just going over home
I'm just going over Jordan
I'm just going over home
