I am a poor [Em] wayfaring stranger
[A] traveling through [G] [E] the world
Yet there's no [B] [A] sickness, [E] toil, nor danger
[A] that bright land [G] to which I go
I'm going there to see my father
going there no [E] more to roam
only going [Em]
over Jordan
[A] traveling through [G] [E] the world
Yet there's no [B] [A] sickness, [E] toil, nor danger
[A] that bright land [G] to which I go
I'm going there to see my father
going there no [E] more to roam
only going [Em]
over Jordan
