Verse
F#m
I'm Just a poor wayfaring stranger
Bm F#m
traveling through this world of woe;
F#m
But there's no pain toil or danger
Bm C#m F#m
In that fair land where I will go;
D A
I'm going there to see my father
D C#m C#
I'm going there no more to roam;
F#m
I am going over Jordan
Bm C#m F#m
I'm going home I'm going home.
[Verse 2]
F#m
I know dark clouds will gather round me
Bm F#m
I know my way is dark and steep;
F#m
But there's a green field over yonder
Bm C#m F#m
where Gods redeemed their virgils keep;
D A
I'm going home to see my mother
D C#m C#
she said she'd meet me when I come;
F#m
I am going over Jordan
Bm C#m F#m
I'm going home I'm going home.
[Verse 3]
F#m
I'll soon be free of every trial
Bm F#m
this form shall rest beneath the sod;
F#m
I'll drop the cross of self denial
Bm C#m F#m
and enter in that home with God;
D A
I'm going there to see my savior
D C#m C#
I'm going home no more to roam;
F#m
I am going over Jordan
Bm C#m F#m
I'm going home I'm going home.
Bm C#m F#m
I'm going home ...... I'm goin home.
