I saw Mr. Watson do this song at one of his shows in North Wilkesboro back in the 70's. He did it with a local kid who had MS or some similar condition. When they were sitting it up to perform, I didn't expect a lot. The rest of the band stood back leaving just those two. When they were finished I doubt there was a dry eye in the place. And I know I'll never forget it.

I'm just a poor, wayfaring stranger While traveling thru this world of woe There is no sickness, toil or danger In that bright world to which I go I’m going there to see my Father I’m going there, no more to roam I’m just a-going over Jordan I’m just a-going over home I know dark clouds will gather o'er me I know my path is rough and steep But golden fields lie out before me Where weary eyes no more shall weep I’m going there to see my Savior Who shed for me His precious blood I’m just a going o'er Jordan, I’m just a going o'er home

Tamo idem da vidim svog oca. I sve svoje voljene koji napustili su me. Samo idem preko Jordana. Samo idem kući. Znam da će se crni oblaci oko mene skupiti, Znam da moj je put težak i strm. Ali predivna polja uzdižu se preda mnom, Tamo gde božiji spas nad njima bdi.* Idem tamo da vidim svoju majku. Rekla je da će me sačekati kada stignem. Tako da samo idem preko Jordana. Samo idem kući. Samo idem preko Jordana. Samo idem kući.

I wouldn't even call this a version of Wayfaring Stranger. It's a teaser to what is a beautiful song, or would be a beautiful song if he sang more than just a tiny fraction of it. Maybe it's just too much to remember more words to the song.
