1. I am a Esmipoor B7wayfaring Esmistranger,
While traveling Asmitrough this world of Esmiwoe
Yet there´s no sicknes, B7toil or Esmidanger,
In that bright Asmiworld B7to which I Esmigo.
2. I´m going Hthere to see my Esmifather,
I´m going Hthere C#no more to F#roam,
B7I´m only Esmigoing B7over EsmiJordan,
I´m only Asmigoing B7over Esmihome.
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.
