• Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
       Em
I am a poor wayfaring stranger
               D                     Em
I'm travellin' through this world of woe
               Em
Yet There's no sickness, no toil, nor danger
               D               Em
In that bright land to which I go


Chorus 1:
          C               G
I'm going there to see my Father
          C               G
I'm going there no more to roam
         Em         C
I'm only going over Jordan
         D          Em
I'm only going over home

Verse 2:
            Em
I know dark clouds will gather 'round me
          D               Em
I know my way is rough and steep
           Em
But Golden fields lie just before me
              D                  Em
Where God's redeemed, shall ever sleep


Chorus 2:
          C               G
I'm going there to see my Mother
           C                      G
And all my loved ones who've gone on
         Em         C
I'm only going over Jordan
         D          Em
I'm only going over home


    Em              C
I'm only going over Jordan
    D               Em
I'm only going over home
