Saw Trace open for Martina McBride in Shreveport. Their tour bus had crashed on the way to the arena killing a man. Trace came out and told the crowd the situation and said he wouldn’t ask his band to play that night under the circumstances because they were hurting. Trace sat down and sang this song and then walked offstage. So solemn and very appropriate for the circumstances. Some were angry that he didn’t do the show but I felt it was a classy way to honor the deceased and hurting.
@@patwelch8187, Would you feel the same if the person who died in the crash had been someone who you really cared about? Some things are more important than entertainment. "Jack a$$"
Tracy adkins Hm, so Tracy, why you gotta do that? I’d understand if you were trying to make someone feel better by making a fake account, but saying a comment back full with such ego is truly dastardly and I hope you understand how bad that truly is.

This song means a great deal to me. I lost 2 men under my Command. Two of my friends are suffering the ravages of Agent Orange and I am a Follicular Lymphoma Cancer Survivor (no radiation treatments in 2 years). I have heard other versions - but this one by Trace Adkins is by far the best
I listened to the different singers of this song but I REALLY REALLY LOVE THIS TRACE ATKINS, I LOVE HIS DEEP BARITON VOICE, BUT THE DONG MAKE ME MISS MY LING GONE PARENTS

My youngest son died in June, 2016 at age 27 of heat stroke. He had a 3 wk old baby boy when he died. Our minister sang this song at his funeral. I also had this song at my mother's funeral. And I want it sung at. my funeral as well.

Wayfaring Stranger" is a Christian hymn that arose from an African American spiritual song of the 19th century. Its scripture references include Psalm 39, Psalm 119, 2 Corinthians 3, and Hebrews 11-13. The lyrics of this hymn illustrate the life of a Christian longing for their home of God's kingdom as a "wayfaring stranger" on earth.

Trace could sing a thousand songs a thousand times, and it will never be as good a performance as this song this time. A perfect performance by him and his band. Perfect.

This has got to be the best version ive ever heard. I must have heard it 100 times now and its still as good as the first. I always crank up the bass and the volume and just go to town with it. My theme song.
I just lost my cousin who we grew up next door to one another and he was my best friend and I am having the hardest time letting him go. This song makes me mourn
Cassie Ehrismann I just now heard it, and I appreciate the tip. But I'm going to stay with Trace's interpretation because to me it makes the lyrics more meaningful, and his voice is perfect for this kind of song. That's just my take.

Trace Adkins singing a folk song? Never thought I'd see the day. But his deep baritone voice does justice to the song. I always loved the song sung by Emilou and so many other great folk singers - I used to sing it myself. Good for Trace for joining in. I wonder what he would do if he decided to do a whole album of traditional folk and gospel tunes? Hope he reads all the excellent comments here!
I love this song. First heard it sung by Andy Griffith. It inspired me to research the song and I learned all the lyrics to it. Sadly I have never heard anyone sing all 4 verses to it, and they need to be sung. Here are all the lyrics. Please, Trace or somebody, bless us all with the complete song. It doesn't need instrumentals or modernized lyrics. Just sing it what it says, in the same melody of what Trace sings here. WAYFARING STRANGER (1st verse) I’m just a poor wayfaring stranger A-traveling through this world of woe But there’s no sickness, no toil nor danger In that bright world to which I go (1st chorus) 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 ( 2nd verse) I know dark clouds will gather round me I know my way is rough and steep But golden fields lie out before me Where God’s redeemed shall ever sleep (2nd chorus) I’m going there to see my mother She said she’d meet me when I come I’m just a-going over Jordan I'm just a going over home
(3rd verse) I’ll soon be free from every trial My body sleep in the church yard I’ll drop the cross of self-denial And enter on my great reward (4th verse) I want to wear that crown of glory When I get Home to that Good Land I want to shout salvation’s story In concert with the blood-washed band ( 3rd chorus) I’m going there to see my Savior To sing His praise for evermore I’m just a-going over Jordan I’m just a-going over Home
Thank you, I've been looking for it. I agree it should be sung as it was written. Liz Murray does it justice though does not sing all of it. It will be sung at my funeral. Semper Fi, Thank you .
Thanks Trace...I never expected you to make a comment!! I'm 98 yrs old....in very good health,!. I love your music....,& would love to see one of your shows..b- 4 The Lord takes me home. !!
So very beautiful. He voice is a God given gift from heaven. All 4 verses are beautifully written, I'd love to hear Trace sing them all. His voice and the music add to the meaning of the song.
Trace Adkins........your song is the one I loved most of all the artists who recorded it. My firstborn, Nancy died yesterday 3/27/2020. Your song Wayfaring Stranger has brought me so much joy and comfort, thank you, God bless you and yours, God bless USA and the whole world. We are fighting a virus that is Invisible
Mr.Adkins, I am 68 and I don’t search out music anymore. Your video “Wayfaring Stranger” was on my screen one day. It is a work of art. You voice is so perfect for this mournful ballad. Thank you. I have played it many trines since, and will play it many more.
That Man can sang! I'm from West Virginia and we sang this as a child. My Aunt would put chills up and down you're spine singing this song playing her fiddle Johnny Cochran, he played fiddle for George Jones. Even as good as he is, my Aunt could out play them all!
This is the best I’ve ever heard this song sang! And his voice is made for it and he took off his hat out of respect, now that’s a real God gifted man with manners.
Humbly & beautifully sung by Trace Adkins in a reverent, soulful, and deeply heartfelt manner, for a much-loved singer Johnny Cash Tribute of the 2011 GMA Gospel Music Hall of Fame.

What a fantastic voice! Have loved hearing him sing since he came on the scene years ago. Wish he would sing Gospel! The Lord can use him mightily for His Kingdom!
Funny, in the midst of this COVID hysteria, I hear this song. And I think about how it has been for most of man's existence. Disease was part of life. And for the most part, we did not hide from it, we accepted it. We are so weak now. Weaker still, because we do not realize how much we need God, how much more we need God today. Lord save us all...
Do we know for sure this disease did not manisfest itself in years gone by? It probably did n culled many but science being what it was in years gone by we had no idea
This song is soooo serious...& I plan to have it played at my funeral!! Trace just had that something...that alot of other Country Singers...don't?!! His voice is haunting..but so beautiful!!,💕🙏😢🌟🙏🎄💥💕

Hope you don't stop liking my aspirations?

WAYFARING STRANGER
(1st verse)
I’m just a poor wayfaring stranger
A-traveling through this world of woe
But there’s no sickness, no toil nor danger
In that bright world to which I go
(1st chorus)
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
( 2nd verse)
I know dark clouds will gather round me
I know my way is rough and steep
But golden fields lie out before me
Where God’s redeemed shall ever sleep
(2nd chorus)
I’m going there to see my mother
She said she’d meet me when I come
I’m just a-going over Jordan
I'm just a going over home
(3rd verse)
I’ll soon be free from every trial
My body sleep in the church yard
I’ll drop the cross of self-denial
And enter on my great reward
(4th verse)
I want to wear that crown of glory
When I get Home to that Good Land
I want to shout salvation’s story
In concert with the blood-washed band
( 3rd chorus)
I’m going there to see my Savior
To sing His praise for evermore
I’m just a-going over Jordan
I’m just a-going over Home
Try a group called Hyde. I believe she sings all 4.
Thank you, I've been looking for it.
I agree it should be sung as it was written. Liz Murray does it justice though does not sing all of it. It will be sung at my funeral. Semper Fi, Thank you .
Nicely Done ... Presents itself well without the redundancy of chorus after each lyric 3&4 Thank You for posting
Trace's voice is amazing and the simple folk/country backing is a brilliant vehicle for the voice and the song. Love it.

Astoundingly true. Always loved the song but never heard it put like this. WOW!!!
Thank you so much Mary I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music 🎶❤️
So very beautiful. He voice is a God given gift from heaven. All 4 verses are beautifully written, I'd love to hear Trace sing them all. His voice and the music add to the meaning of the song.
Trace Adkins........your song is the one I loved most of all the artists who recorded it. My firstborn, Nancy died yesterday 3/27/2020.
Your song Wayfaring Stranger has brought me so much joy and comfort, thank you, God bless you and yours, God bless USA and the whole world.
We are fighting a virus that is Invisible
I am sorry for loss.

Mr.Adkins, I am 68 and I don’t search out music anymore. Your video “Wayfaring Stranger” was on my screen one day. It is a work of art. You voice is so perfect for this mournful ballad. Thank you. I have played it many trines since, and will play it many more.
Me too.
I've spent 60 years wandering this earth. I am ready to go home.
That Man can sang!
I'm from West Virginia and we sang this as a child.
My Aunt would put chills up and down you're spine singing this song playing her fiddle
Johnny Cochran, he played fiddle for George Jones. Even as good as he is, my Aunt could out play them all!
I am in tears. He is the best voice for this.
Thank you so much for your love showed unto me...
What a great voice I love this song nice memories back in the days. How are you Kayla ?
This is the best I’ve ever heard this song sang! And his voice is made for it and he took off his hat out of respect, now that’s a real God gifted man with manners.
I say Amen & Amen!!!
Agreed, Amen!
The finest rendition I've ever heard
Humbly & beautifully sung by Trace Adkins in a reverent, soulful, and deeply heartfelt manner, for a much-loved singer Johnny Cash Tribute of the 2011 GMA Gospel Music Hall of Fame.
Hello beautiful lady
Great song good memories I love listening to this song on my playlist. How are you Leslie ?
Thank you for being an amazing fan Leslie.
I decided to take out some free time and put smiles on the faces of my fans by going through and checking out on my fans, showing love and appreciation and also get to communicate with my fans better through discussions.
If you are disabled or in a coma and you feel very sad and unloved listen to love songs from the last 7 years you'll find that God has never left you he loves you

Probably the best version of this song. Amazing deep vocals here !
His version of this song is by far my favorite
Amazing, love his voice, love his delivery. Respect the big man.
This brings such comfort to me.
It is a very nice feeling when you know there are people who love you so much. It is difficult to live up to their expectation, but I will try as much as I can do, as they share an important part in my fame. I always try to reach to my 'Fans' and thank them, as it is not possible personally to all so I keep myself well updated on UA-cam and be in touch with all my loved fans. I am very glad and look forward to live up to their expectation
Are you one of my great fans out there?
My favorite version of this song. The deep soul of his voice makes this song stick to you.
This was my grandfather's favorite song.
What a fantastic voice! Have loved hearing him sing since he came on the scene years ago. Wish he would sing Gospel! The Lord can use him mightily for His Kingdom!
Bless your heart this is the ministry message I preach thru Christ and Holy Ghost 😇
Pretty sure he has...
Trace was a part of a gospel quartet before he became a country music singer
Glad he's not just another gospel bass/baritone! Got enough of those quartets making pests of themselves.
Thank you so much Suzanne I sincerely hope you never stop listening to my music 🎶❤️
Funny, in the midst of this COVID hysteria, I hear this song. And I think about how it has been for most of man's existence. Disease was part of life. And for the most part, we did not hide from it, we accepted it. We are so weak now. Weaker still, because we do not realize how much we need God, how much more we need God today. Lord save us all...
Do we know for sure this disease did not manisfest itself in years gone by? It probably did n culled many but science being what it was in years gone by we had no idea
This is the best cover of the "Wayfaring Stranger." Thank you Trace with your awsome band of musicians.
Beautiful song sung by a beautiful man ❤❤❤
Upmost respect to Trace he had showed respect by removing his hat to sing this song an he does it justice ! Anyone listening in 2021 !

Praise the Lord

I would agree, a level of authenticity that is unique
Would love to hear him sing "Mary did you know"... Amazing!
Yep.
That would be awesome
