1. I am a Fmipoor C7wayfaring Fmistranger,
While traveling Bmitrough this world of Fmiwoe
Yet there´s no sicknes, C7toil or Fmidanger,
In that bright Bmiworld C7to which I Fmigo.
2. I´m going C#there to see my Fmifather,
I´m going C#there Esno more to Asroam,
C7I´m only Fmigoing C7over FmiJordan,
I´m only Bmigoing C7over Fmihome.
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.
