While travelling through this world alone
There is no sickness, toil nor danger

In that bright land to which I go

I am just going over Jordan

I am just going over home

I know my pathway is rough and steep
The golden fields lie out before me
Dm Am
Where weary eyes no more will weep

I'm going home to see my father
Dm Am
I'm going home no more to roam
I am just going over Jordan
Dm Am
I am just going over home

I'll soon be free from every trial
Dm Am
This form shall rest beneath the sod
I'll drop the cross of self-denial
Dm Am
And enter in that home of good

Who spilled his precious blood for me
I am just going over Jordan

I am just going over Jordan

I am just going over home
