I Am a Poor Wayfaring Stranger (Original Lyrics) | 1917 OST Chords

_ _ _ _ _ I [B] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ am a poor _ _ _ _ wayfaring stranger _ _ I'm _ _ _ traveling through _ _ this world of _ fear
_ _ _ _ Yet there's no _ _ _ sickness, toil, nor danger _ In _ _ _ that bright [A] land _ _ to [E] which I [E] go _ _
_ _ _ _ I'm going [C] _ there to see [G] my father _ _ _ _ _ I'm going [C] _ _ there no [Em] more to roam
_ [E] _ _
_ _ I'm only going _ _ [Em] _ over [E] Jordan _ _ _ _ _ _ I'm only [D] _ _ going _ over
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
I know dark _ _ _ clouds will gather round _ me _ I _ know my _ way is rough and _ steep
_ _ _ But _ golden _ _ _ fields lie just before me _ _ _ _ _ Where God's redeemed _ _ shall ever sleep _ _ _
_ _ I'm [C] going _ _ _ home to see [G] my _ mother _ _ And _ all [C] my _ _ _ loved ones who've [B] gone _ on
[E] _ _ _
_ I'm only _ _ _ [Em]
going over _ Jordan [E] _ _
_ I'm _ _ [D] only _ _ _ going over
[E] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ I'll soon be free _ _ from every trial _ My _ _ _ _ body sleep _ _ in the _ churchyard _ _ _
_ _ _ I'll drop the _ _ cross of self-denial _ _ _ _ _ _ And enter _ _ _ on my great reward _ _ _ _ _ _
_ I'm going [C] there _ _ to see my [G] savior _ _ To _ _ sing [C] his _ _ _ praise _ _ _ [Em]
forevermore _ _ _ _ _ _
I'm only _ _ going _ over Jordan _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I'm only _ _ [E] _
going _ _ [Em] over
