Verse 1:

Am I'm Just a poor wayfaring stranger Dm Am traveling through this world of woe; Am But there's no pain toil or danger Dm Em Am In that fair land where I will go; F C I'm going there to see my father F Em E I'm going there no more to roam; Am I am going over Jordan Dm Em Am I'm going home I'm going home.

Verse 2:

Am I know dark clouds will gather round me Dm Am I know my way is dark and steep; Am But there's a green field over yonder Dm Em Am where Gods redeemed their virgils keep; F C I'm going home to see my mother F Em E she said she'd meet me when I come; Am I am going over Jordan Dm Em Am I'm going home I'm going home.

Verse 3:

Am I'll soon be free of every trial Dm Am this form shall rest beneath the sod; Am I'll drop the cross of self denial Dm Em Am and enter in that home with God; F C I'm going there to see my savior F Em E I'm going home no more to roam; Am I am going over Jordan Dm Em Am I'm going home I'm going home. Dm Em Am I'm going home ...... I'm goin home.
