Intro: Am Dm Am Am I'm just a poor wayfaring stranger Dm Am Travelin' through this world below There's no sickness, no toil, nor danger Dm Am In that bright land to which I go F C I'm going there to see my Father F E7 E and all my loved ones who've gone on Am I'm just goin' over Jordan Dm Am I'm just goin' over home Am I know dark clouds will gather round me Dm Am I know my way is hard and steep But beauteous fields arise before me Dm Am Where God's redeemed, their vigil keeps F C I'm going there to see my Mother F E7 E She said she'd meet me when I come Am I'm just goin' over Jordan Dm Am I'm just goin' over home Am I'm just goin' over Jordan Dm Am I'm just goin' over home This arrangement is its contributor’s own interpretation, shared for private study, education and non-commercial use.
