Wayfaring Stranger

[Verso 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. 
  

[Verso 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. 


[Verso 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.
