♫ Intro:

Em



♫ Verse 1:
Em
I'm just a poor wayfaring stranger
          Am                   B7
Traveling through this world of woes
           Em           Em7     AM
There's no sickness, no toil or danger
        Em     B7               Em
In that bright lignt to which I go

♫ pre-Chorus:
Em  Em7   C               Em
I'm going there to see my mother
               C              Em
She said she'd meet me when I come

♫ Chorus:
         Em      Em7  Am
I'm just a-goin' over Jordan
         Em      B7   Em
I'm just a-goin' over home

♫ Verse 2:
            Em
I know dark clouds will gather 'round me
          Am               B7
I know my way is rough and steep
    Em               Em7             Am
But beauteous fields lie just before me
           B7                    Em
Where gods redeemed their vigils keep

♫ Pre-Chorus 2:
Em  Em7   C               Em
I'm going there to see my father

I'm going there, no more to roam

I'm just a-goin' over home

             Em
I'll soon be free from earthly trials
          Am                     B7
This body rests in the old churchyard
               Em            Am
I'll drop this cross of self-denial
       B7              Em
And go singing home to God
