(Lyrics)
I am a poor wayfaring stranger
While traveling through this world of woe
But there’s no sickness, toil, nor danger
In that bright land to which I go
I’m going there to meet my father
I’m going there no more to roam
I’m just a goin’ over Jordan
I’m just a goin’ over home
I know dark clouds will gather o’er me
I know my way is rough and steep
But yet green pastures lie before me
Where God’s redeemed no more shall
weep
I’m going there to see my mother
She said she’d meet me when I come
I’m just a goin’ over Jordan
I’m just a goin’ over home
I’m going there to see my Savior
To sing His praise forevermore
I’m just a goin’ over Jordan
I’m just a goin’ over home
I’m just a goin’ over Jordan
I’m just a goin’ over home
I’m just a goin’ over Jordan
Over home

My mom and I fell in love with this song when it was used in the movie 1917. When she was diagnosed with cancer and admitted into hospice, I would sing this song to her. She would have loved this.

[@leezurligen227]

We are singing it for my mother’s funeral this Saturday.

[@taylor_smith]

Dude that’s where I first heard it too. I watched it like 3 times in a row

[@TamaraLee-uz8hm]

Beautiful message! God bless you.

[@carlatamanczyk3891]

Tabernacle Choir is one of the most cherished and blessed connections we have between Heaven and earth.

[@rachelmullins6594]

When we are one in song, that is the closest we will ever be to being of one heart, like in Heaven.

[@elizabethambriz8298]

Amen!!

The Piano Guys and The Mormon Tabernacle Choir a perfect combination. We all need this calming music in a world of so much conflict in every country.

[@Theresa-eh5ue]

Yes we sooooo needthis.

[@deborahkemunto1433]

And the power that comes when the harmonies are backed by their numbers is heavenly

[@jandiramariamendesbizigatt3682]

[@LPappy]

The Tabernacle Choir and Piano Guys did this African American spiritual justice! Chills.

[@derekwhitworth6261]

The origin of the song is unknown, but historians believe it is likely an old Scottish or German folk song.

[@tannerpeterson7164]

To those who say you should only listen to the choir on sunday, I say why limit your peace to only one day of the week?

[@amberpelton5679]

Amen. I listen to this kind of music everyday. I feel so close to my Heavenly Father when I do. ❤

[@mypetcrow9873]

Only on Sunday? Why? Never heard of such a thing. How bizarre.

[@CheReikingi]

Who said that??? Whoever said that to you is preaching their own narrative.

[@jillhamilton1928]

My service missionary daughter helped prepare the leaves which fluttered down around everyone.

[@janmarsh4104]

May I ask where this was shot, location?

[@zbank6745]

How amazing

[@starlegends3092]

Yeah

[@sorellaoliver]

By their fruits you shall know them… this beautiful video lifted my heart, spirit, and soul. Thank you for sharing your talents with the world. It was precious and divine to hear such a glorious song. Reminded me of things long forgotten…

[@starlegends3092]

Music reminds me of things long forgotten all the time. That why i listen to it. Good to hear someone else does too

[@Stuart68505]

The music of the Mormon tabernacle choir is very moving and inspires faith in God.

[@theresa4867]

Amen, brother.I agree.

[@GyPsychic_BYU]

As an LDS hospice Chaplain, I played this song on the accordion for many hospice patients. Breathtakingly…Beautiful.

[@chrisf.b.1056]

This song helped me so much when I was a Missionary. My favorite part would be: "I know dark clouds do gather round me, I know my way is rough and steep but yet green pastures lye before me where God's redeemed no more shall weep."

[@brentlayman481]

This beautiful song is so full of hope for EVERYONE! I can't say enough regarding my love for my Savior!❤

[@bikeboarder9989]

This is proof that inspired music is a gateway to the soul and a window to Heaven.

[@kowens227]

I love hearing the Tabernacle Choir do folk music like this. The collaboration was lovely, the sound was sublime, and the visuals were moving.

[@maryrosepoi5748]

When ever i listen to the Tabernacle choir I'm in tears...it's like being transcended into another realm, like the garden of Eden...so beautiful.

[@scottforesman7968]

beautifully rendered

[@perrymasonxix5954]

This is a great video to watch when you are having a bad day and feel discouraged

[@marcosmarcos5468]

I'm just a poor wayfaring stranger Traveling through this world below There is no sickness, no toil or 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

[@norsmo3]

We love the Tab Choir and The Piano Guys! To combine the two is a musical blessing from Heaven...thank you!

[@SAULSSELAHHymns]

What a privilege to see and hear this. God bless you

[@bubuvaiphei1045]

1:15 I know dark coulds will gather'round me, I know my way is hard and steep, Yet beauteous fields arise before me, Where God's redeemed their vigils keep.

The crossover we wish we had, and so glad we got it. God be Praised!

[@pwhitneybaird]

This is a beautiful folk song in la Pentatonic. Only 5 notes used to convey such feeling and emotion. Beautifully done by inspired professionals. Love it.

[@wuabcountyboy]

Just checking to see if you knew the Key they played this In? And if you knew where I could get the lyrics? e.g. some of the ending lyrics were different than other versions. Thanks!

[@rossboothe4466]

Key of D minor.

[@MoroniReviews]

Last night I participated in an “Interfaith” choir concert. It really made me appreciate even more the culture of music and worship in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Thank you for this song!

Several comments asking where this was filmed: “The video features more than 200 of the 360 choir members and was filmed on an outdoor movie set with a replica of Joseph Smith’s home in Palmyra, New York, in 1820, the choir posted.” From an article on The Church News’ website.
