Start Jamming...
I am a poor [Em] wayfaring stranger
I'm [A] traveling through [G] [E] the world
Yet there's no [B] [A] sickness, [E] toil, nor danger
In [A] that bright land [G] to which I go
I'm going there to see my father
I'm going there no [E] more to roam
[G] I'm only going [Em]
over Jordan
I'm only [A] going over [E] home
[Am]
I know dark clouds will gather round me
I know my way is rough [B] and [C#] steep
[E]
But golden [B] fields [D] lie [Em] just before me
Where God's [F] redeemed [G] shall ever sleep
I'm going home to see my mother
And all my loved ones who've gone [B] on
[Em] I'm only going over Jordan
I'm only [A] going [E] over home
I am a [D] [B] poor
[Am] wayfaring stranger
[Em] I'm [A] traveling through [Em] this world of woe
Yet there's no [Am] sickness, toil, nor [E] danger
In that bright [Am] land [G] to which I go
I'm going there to see my father
I'm going there no [Em] more to roam
I'm only going over Jordan
I'm only [F]
[Em] going over [E] home
