EM                B7       EM
I'M JUST A POOR WAYFARIN' STRANGER
              AM                  B7
A TRAVELIN' THROUGH THIS WORLD OF WOE
               EM            B7       EM
AND THERE'S NO SICK - NESS, TOIL NOR DANGER
             A-AM            EM
IN THAT FAIR LAND TO WHICH I GO
                           B7
I'M GOING THERE TO SEE MY MOTHER
           EM               B7
I'M GOING THERE NO MORE TO ROAM
           EM   B7    EM
I'M JUST A GO - ING OVER JORDAN
          A-AM          EM
I'M JUST GO - ING OVER HOME

I know dark clouds will gather 'round me
I know my way is steep and rough;
But beauteous fields lie just beyond me
Where souls redeemed their vigil keep.
     I'm going there to meet my mother
     She said she'd meet me when I come
     I'm just a-going over Jordan
     I'm just a-going over home.
I want to wear a crown of glory
When I get home to that bright land
I want to shout Salvation's story
In concert with that bloodwashed band.
     I'm going there to meet my Saviour
     To sing His praises forevermore
     I'm only going over Jordan
     I'm only going over home.
