Southern Raised, a group of award winning kinfolk, trained in classical music but raised in the bluegrass soaked Ozark Mountains. They have created a Southern Raised trademark sound where classical meets bluegrass and city streets meets country roads. SR has morphed a progressive sound that spans Christian Country/ Bluegrass, Celtic and Classical. They’re talented, they’re energetic, they’re Southern Raised.

Lyrics to this specific version (mix of Baez's original and Johny cash version): I'm just a poor wayfaring stranger I'm traveling through this world of woe There's no sickness, toil or 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 beauteous fields lie just before me Where God's redeemed, their vigil keep I'm going there to see my Mother I'm going there no more to roam I'm just a going over Jordan I'm just a going over home I'm going there to see my savior To sing its prayers forever more I'm just a going over Jordan I'm just a going over home I'm just a going over home

[@antig7036]

I have been singing my own version for over 2 decades... and English isn't even my first language. That is the beauty of songs like this. The lyrics are universal yet they touch us on a very personal level like no other... One day, I may share mine. But this one will stay with me forever! I will be listening to it and singing along in my heart... on my next long journey to see my mother. Thank you, SR! 🙏

[@elviaheredia6539]

I never heard of this group until our extended family went to Silver Dollar City in Branson, MO last August 2019. I am recovering from cancer and have low energy so they parked me at the Southern Raised Bluegrass show to rest. What a treat to hear your heavenly bluegrass gospel songs. I ended up staying through three shows because I didn’t want to watch any of the others. You have a handsome and gifted family!

[@karenkellenberger904]

So my husband and I just heard this fantastic group again at Silver Dollar City in Branson, Missouri on Saturday the 4th of July! Sadly, because of the low park attendance due to the Covid virus, the audience was small. But they still sang and performed their heart out!! Dueling Banjos with guitar man and banjo player - entertaining. Foggy Mountain Breakdown with the lead singer and fiddle gal -no words. Mostly loved the gospel songs and words, though.

[@brentcollins6067]

I absolutely love your music and get blessed by our heavenly Father everytime I listened to your albums. God bless you all and I pray your ministry endures for a long time.

[@linterpretemehariste9081]

Yeah, that's it! Great idea! I wanna ask SR for the musical notes to send them to my congregation before my burial. I want that to be played and sung in the version of SR at my burial too! Hope they will send it and that it will arrive at my congregation before I have coughed out my lungs ... ;-) Hopefully that hymn will be the hit on my burial!

I lost my mother A few years ago. So this song always brings tears to my eye, a lump to my throat, and a smile to my face at the same time. Thank you for such a wonderful version, it made my night.

[@linterpretemehariste9081]

Howdy, Bro! This hymn has the same effect on me. I got that crappy coronavirus and I'm coughing out my lungs... Wanna get somehow a smile on the faces of those attending my burial and I think this hymn will make my day (or their day at least ;-) ... ). I'll definitely ask my congregation to play and sing this hymn at my burial. Only, they'll need the musical notes to do so. I'll ask SR if they would exceptionally send them to my adress and to be sure to the adress of my congregations prayer house. Hope they will be so kind to do so. I think this hymn has the potential and is able to bring comfort even to my widow and my orphans. That hymn is just great! Strange, I feel somehow excited, like a lil boy before Xmas or maybe more like an old stallion which remarks that his rider is guiding him home to his stable where food and water and his herd are awaiting him. We have a proverb here, saying this: Hoimtsou rennt der Gaul vi vun alloi! That means literally: On its way home, the horse runs as from its own. (Meaning you don't need to push a horse which has recognized that it's now going into the direction of his homestable, it's running from alone anyway. ;-) ... )
