[Intro]

[Verse 1]

I'm just a poor wayfaring stranger,

Dm Am

travelin' through this world of woe.

There's no sadness, toil, or danger,

Dm Am

in that bright world to which I go.

[Chorus]

F C

I'm going there to meet my father

F E E7

I'm going there no more to roam

I'm just going over Jordan,

Dm E Am

I'm just going over home.

[Verse 2]

I know dark clouds will gather round me,

Dm Am

I know my way is dark and steep.

But beauteous fields lie just before me,

Dm Am

where soul's redeemed their vigils keep.

[Chorus]

F C

I'm going there to meet my father,

F E E7

I'm going there no more to roam

I'm just going over Jordan,

Dm Am

I'm just going over home.
