Cm
I know dark clouds will hang round me,
Fm Cm
I know my way is rough and steep
Yet beauteous fields lie just before me
Fm Cm
Where Gods redeemed their virgils keep
Ab Eb
Im going there to see my mother
Ab Cm G7
She said shed meet me when I come
Cm
I'm only going over Jordan
Fm Cm
I'm only going over home
SOLO
