Em Em

[Verse]
           Em
I'm just a poor wayfaring stranger
          Am                    B 
Traveling through this world of woe
            Em
There is no sickness, no toil, nor danger
        Am     B               Em
In that bright land to which I go

[Chorus]
          C               G
I'm going there to see my mother
               C              B 
She said she'd meet me when I come
           Em
I'm just a-goin' over Jordan
           Am    B    Em
I'm just a-goin' over home

[Verse]
            Em
I know dark clouds will gather 'round me
          Am                B 
I know my path is rough and steep
              Em
But beauteous fields lie just before me
            Am           B      Em
Where god's redeem their vigils keep

[Chorus]
          C               G
I'm going there to see my father
          C                 B 
I'm going there, no more to roam
           Em
I'm just a-goin' over Jordan
           Am    B    Em
I'm just a-goin' over home

[Bridge]
             Em
I'll soon be free from every trial
          Am                    B 
This body rest in the ol’ churchyard
               Em
I'll drop this cross of self-denial
       Am          B   Em
And go singing home to God

[Chorus]
          C               G
I'm going there to see my savior
          C                 B 
I'm going there, no more to roam
           Em
I'm just a-goin' over Jordan
           Am    B    Em
I'm just a-goin' over home

[Outro]
           Em
I'm just a-goin' over Jordan
           Am    B    Em
I'm just a-goin' over home
           Am    B 
I'm just a-goin'...
