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