        Cm
I am a poor wayfaring stranger

                Fm                     Cm
While traveling through this world of woe

                Cm
Yet there's no sickness, toil, or danger

               Fm               Cm
In that bright world to which I go
[Chorus]
           Ab              Eb
I'm going there to see my Father

           Ab       Cm      G7
I'm going there no more to roam

          Cm
I'm only going over Jordan

          Fm         Cm
I'm only going over home
[Solo] [Verse 2]
             Cm
I know dark clouds will head around me,

          Fm               Cm
I know my way is rough and steep

               Cm
Yet beauteous fields lie just before me

              Fm                  Cm
Where God's redeemed their vigils keep
[Chorus]
           Ab              Eb
I'm going there to see my mother

                Ab      Cm     G7
She said she'd meet me when I come

          Cm
I'm only going over Jordan

          Fm         Cm
I'm only going over home
[Solo]
