1. I am a F#mipoor C#7wayfaring F#mistranger,
While traveling Hmitrough this world of F#miwoe
Yet there´s no sicknes, C#7toil or F#midanger,
In that bright Hmiworld C#7to which I F#migo.
2. I´m going Dthere to see my F#mifather,
I´m going Dthere Eno more to Aroam,
C#7I´m only F#migoing C#7over F#miJordan,
I´m only Hmigoing C#7over F#mihome.
3. I know dark clouds will gather round me,
I know my way, is rough and steep,
Yet beateous fields lies just before me,
Where god´s redeem their vigils keep.
4. I´m going there to see my mother,
She sad she´d meet me, when I will come,
I´m only going over Jordan,
I´m only going over home.
5. I´ll soon be freed from every trial,
My body sleep in the church yard,
I´ll drop the cross of self-denial,
And enter on my great reward.
6. I´m going there to see my Savior,
To sing his praise forevemore
I´m only going over Jordan,
I´m only going over home.
