    Beautiful version, very well done! I grew up in a house and area in southern mo where bluegrass music was played all the time. My Daddy played multiple instruments. He went home to be with Jesus in 2008, and till this very day its still difficult to listen bluegrass without tearing up thinking about him! Please Please receive Jesus before its too late for you, and make sure your family and neighbors are saved!

    Y'all... Coming from a 66 year old man who has listened to country & western, swing, bluegrass, and folk, and managed concerts, THERE IS NO BETTER MUSICAL COMPOSITION AND ACCOMPANIMENT THAN WHAT Y'ALL DID WITH THIS SONG. It is sublime, rhythmic, and articulate all at the same time. This is musical mastery. As always, lil miss lead singer is spot on with every note of her voice, but then I would posit that because of the skill of the instrumentalists she is both inspired and confident to sing with all of her inner strength. Y'all got something here guys...

    I first heard this song the morning that my grandfather passed away. My uncle and me were coming back from the hospital, it was quiet. He put this song on and at first I didn't really pay attention. Once I heard "I'm only going over Jordan" everything felt still. As I kept listening I could feel the tears and emotions finally building up inside. When I heard "I'm going to see my mother, she said she'd meet me there when I come." I could feel the tears overflowing. This song helped me get through that week. Even now after 6 months when I hear this song it helps me remember that he is in a better place. I miss him so much and not a day has gone by that I don't think of him.

Reading your comment touched my heart. And was well with my gut. The response you received from Viking who ever. Went against my gut. My gut has never failed me.

It`s some kind of magic to this band and Rebekka’s angel like voice with her expression and unbelievable overtones.

As she breathed her last breaths another victim of bad health and COVID. I cried my eyes out then and I am doing it again now as I write this. They say hearing is the last sense to go so I prayed she heard it and could feel my son and I holding her hands. She passed ironically at 3:16 pm as hurricane Ian pressed down on us. My son who held her hand on the other side of the bed is named Ian. I have the time as a constant reminder of John 3:16. RIP my love of 47 years. I will be a long soon.

    Yet there's no sickness, toil, or danger
    In that bright world to which I goI'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 homeI know dark clouds will gather 'round me
    I know my way is rough and steep
    Yet beauteous fields lie just before me
    Where God's redeemed, their vigils keepI'm going there to see my mother
    She said she'd meet me when I come
    I'm only going over Jordan
    I'm only going over homeI am a poor wayfaring stranger
    While traveling through this world of woe
    Yet there's no sickness, toil, or danger
    In that bright world to which I goI'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

When I realized who they were, I listened whenever I could to versions from all over, from well-known artists to informal groups. This is still the best version, in my opinion, simple and sweet. Love it every time I listen.
