[Verse 1]
Em
I am a poor wayfaring stranger
D Em
Travellin' through this world of woe
Em
There is no sickness, toil, nor danger
D Em
In that fair land to which I go
[Chorus 1]
C G
I'm going home to see my Mother
C G
I'm going home no more to roam
Em C
I'm just a-going over Jordan
D Em
I'm just a-going over home
[Verse 2]
Em
I know dark clouds will hover on me
D Em
I know my pathway is rough and steep
Em
But Golden fields lie out before me
D Em
Where weary eyes no more shall weep
[Chorus 2]
C G
I'm going home to see my Father
C G
I'm going home no more to roam
Em C
I'm just a-going over Jordan
D Em
I'm just a-going over home
[Verse 3]
Em
I'll soon be free from every trial
D Em
This form shall rest beneath the sun
Em
I'll drop the cross of self-denial
D Em
And enter in that home with God
[Chorus 3]
C G
I'm going home to see my Saviour
C G
I'm going home no more to roam
Em C
I'm just a-going over Jordan
D Em
I'm just a-going over home
