[Cm]I’m a poor wayfaring stranger
While traveling th[Fm]ru this world of wo[Cm]e
Yet there’s no sickness, toil, or danger
In that bright w[Fm]orld to which I g[Cm]o
I’m going t[Ab]here to see my Fa[Eb]ther
I’m going t[Ab]here no m[Cm]ore to ro[G7]am
I’m only go[Cm]ing over Jordan
I’m only g[Fm]oing over h[Cm]ome
SOLO
[Cm]I know dark clouds will hang ‘round me,
I know my [Fm]way is rough and [Cm]steep
Yet beauteous fields lie just before me
Where God’s [Fm]redeemed their virgils [Cm]keep
I’m going [Ab]there to see my [Eb]mother
She said she’d [Ab]meet me [Cm]when I [G7]come
I'm only go[Cm]ing over Jordan
I'm only g[Fm]oing over h[Cm]ome
SOLO
