Wayfaring Stranger
[Bearbeiten]- I am a[Am]poor way-[E7]faring[Am]stranger
- While travelling[Dm]through this world of[E7]woe
- There's no[Am]sick-[E7]ness no toil or[Am]danger
- In that bright[Dm]wo-[E7]rld to which I[Am]go
- I'm going[F]there[G]to meet my[C]father
- I'm going[F]there[G]no more to[C]ro-[E7]am
- I’m only[Am]go-[E7]ing over[Am]Jordan
- I’m only[Dm]go-[E7]ing over[Am]home[(E7)]
- I know dark[Am]clouds will[E7]gather a-[Am]round me
- I know my[Dm]path is rough and[E7]steep
- But golden[Am]fields lie[E7]there be-[Am]fore me
- Where weary[Dm]eyes no[E7]more shall[Am]weep
- I'm going[F]there[G]to see my[C]mother
- She said she'd[F]meet me[G]when I[C]come[(E7)]
- I’m only[Am]go-[E7]ing over[Am]Jordan
- I’m only[Dm]go-[E7]ing over[Am]home[(E7)]
- I'll soon be[Am]free from[E7]every[Am]trial
- This form will[Dm]rest beneath the[E7]sod
- I'll drop the[Am]cross of[E7]self de-[Am]nial,
- And enter[Dm]in my[E7]home with[Am]God.
- I'm going[F]there to[G]see my[C]Saviour
- Who shed for[F]me His[G]precious[C]blood[E7]
- I’m only[Am]go-[E7]ing over[Am]Jordan
- I’m only[Dm]go-[E7]ing over[Am]home[(E7)]
- I'm going to[Am]wear the[E7]crown of[Am]glory
- When I get[Dm]home to that bright[E7]land
- I'm going to[Am]shout salvation's[Am]story
- In concert[Dm]with that[E7]bloodwashed[Am]band
- I'm going[F]there[G]to meet my[C]Saviour
- To sing His[F]praises[G]for ever[C]more[E7]
- I’m only[Am]go-[E7]ing over[Am]Jordan
- I’m only[Dm]go-[E7]ing over[Am]home[(E7)]
