Verse 1EmG
I am a poor wayfaring stranger
AEm
Traveling through, this world alone
EmG
There's no sickness, toil nor danger
AEm
In that bright land, to which I go
EmG
I'm going there to see my mother
AEm
I'm going there no more to roam
EmG
I'm only going over Jordan
AEm
I'm only going over home now
ChorusEmG
I know dark clouds will gather o'er me
AEm
I know my way is rough and steep

And the beautiful fields lie just beyond me
AEm
I know my way is rough and steep
EmG
I'm going there to see my mother
AEm
I'm going there no more to roam
EmG
I'm just going over Jordan
AEm
I'm just going over home
