Dolly Parton - Wayfaring Stranger Lyrics
I am a poor wayfaring stranger
While traveling thru this world of woe
Yet there's no sickness, toil or danger
In that bright world yo which I go
I'm going there to see my father
I'm only going over Jordan
I'm only going over home
I know dark clouds will gather around me
I know my way is rough and steep
Yet beauteous fields lie just before me
Where God's redeedmed their vigils keep
I'm going there to my mother
She said she'd meet me when I come
I'm only going over me

Dolly Parton Wayfaring Stranger Comments
A beautiful haunting melody performed by a Legend, Dolly Parton, in a cappella, she has a gift from God with that voice......I can’t stop listening to her. God bless her and thank you so much for posting. ❤️❤️🌺🌸🌺
I can't believe you're commenting Mom 🤣💕
Genius, genius, genius! Did I mention this woman is a genius? BEST VERSION EVER! Oh, should I mention Dolly Rebecca Parton is a genius?! Hearing a voice like this makes gods humble & angels weep....
1917 brought me here
I am the 1000th person to like this 😂
The movie 1917 brought me here.
Wow !
We all are !
We all need a Saviour !
That's why we were all given the gift of life .
It's a test
It's a an invitation from God our Father to know Him
To choose Him and receive His love and eternal salvation through His Son Jesus
Ask Him now
Into your heart
Ask Him to forgive your sins
He will never leave you nor forsake you!
He will show you love
Real love !
Only in boxes of Breeze! Anyone remember that?
I’ve listened to Dolly most of my life, since a little boy and she was a young lady on Porter Wagner’s show. I liked her voice even when I was young. I think it just got better as she grew up and older. This is the first I’ve ever heard her sing “Wayfaring Stranger,”. I started shaking and tearing up, for Pete’s sake, it was wonderful, special, even for her! Whoever put this on, thank you. Thank you, too, Ms. Parton. I love this old song and Dolly Parton sang it’s soul on this wonderful recording. I have a home on a little river, in Walland, Tennessee, between Townsend and Maryville. It’s real small. Ms. Parton might know Walland.
"Can't buy 'em! You can only get 'em in boxes of Breeze!"
. . . feeling a little homesick.
Sounds like a sad song, but it really isn't.
Looks like 19 people's fingers slipped on the way to the like button.
Dolly's is good but it is no match for Emmylou's. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lqHp5CDl4yQ
She also has Dollyland. Anyone been to it?
I went there like 10 years ago. It was alright- no Disneyland but still pretty fun.
It’s Dollywood. I’ve been a ton and met dolly herself there 3 separate times.
Top notch
DOLLY IN A LEAGUE OF HER OWN...
TIS MIGHTY...
Greetings from Dublin Ireland brother and sisters We love her HERE..
I know his sweet love will surround ME....
Beautiful rendition. You can hear her country roots. Very touching!
The way she draws out “roam” absolutely devastates me. What a voice.
I'm not even a big country or folk fan but LIKED.
Still incredible after all these years. No one does country like Dolly.
🌈🌟⭐🎵🎶🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎸🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹🎹
Sets the standard that no one else can top . Beautiful , haunting, unforgettable .
A true legend
One of the prettiest voices ta come out of the hills
My daughter loves to sing this song and does a really good job too.
Mrs. Thomas tell her to put it up on youtube then🙂
WoooooW
*Makes me long for home. Beautiful. Dolly's voice is amazing. Still is to this day.*
I think this song's tune similiar Dolly's song little sparrow.
Dolly is good, but Bill Monroe is the best ever.
That mournful mountain lift....so beautiful
I agree with Chris Littl - She really put everything into this beautiful song- so unique!! love her
Thanks for the recommendation Cary Buffington!
Of course Dolly singing this is pure perfection. She is forever the best.
Everyone talks about what version of this song is the best, as it has been recorded by so many great musicians, from Joan Baez to Bill Monroe. I can't say one is better than another, but this one is my favorite because of its pure and heartfelt delivery.
Emmylou has also done a really lovely version although my own favourite is by Doc Watson.
Yana from the talent show 'The Voice of Flanders' does a great job with this.
Check out the version by the Franz family.
I have already commented - Beautiful. But does anyone know more or less in what year this was sung? Thanks
doll's voice is absolutely fantastically haunting , this version gave me chills .. I'm sure the angels in heaven are a sound to behold , but I have no doubt that Dolly will surly stand out amoung them
С пасибо !!!
I want to hear Dolly, Ed Sheeran, and Jack White all collaborate on a version of this song... it would be so epic.
oh yeah ed sheeran done a cover version off this song. I'm a huge fan of him. I got his New album divide
i did not like Ed Sheeran's version at all. Jack White's, however, was darn near perfect. Dolly's is great too.
Love jacks version 😋
@Le Tinh Song Ed Sheerans version isn't haunting, maybe that's why
Simply beautiful!
Best version
AHI agree
Dolly certainly understood the heartache of this song; you can hear it in her voice...beautiful
I agree with you Chris - what feeling in that voice!!
I'm 18 but I love her songs so much I got Her album blue smoke and a CD of her best hits.
She puts emotion in her voice. she even got a good voice
