Far Side Banks Of Jordan |
| I believe my steps are growing wearier each day |
| I’ve got another journey on my mind |
| Lures of this old world have ceased to make me wanna stay |
| My one regret is leaving you behind |
| If it proves to be His will, that I am first to go |
| And somehow I’ve a feeling it will be |
| Oh, when it comes your times to travel likewise don’t feel lost |
| For I will be the first one that you’ll see |
| And I’ll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan |
| I’ll be sitting, drawing pictures in the sand |
| And when I see you coming I will rise up with the shout |
| And come running through the shallow waters reaching for your hand |
| Through this life we’ve labored hard to earn our meager fare |
| It’s brought us trembling hands and failing eyes |
| So I’ll just rest here on this shore and turn my eyes away |
| Until you come and we’ll see paradise |
| And I’ll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan |
| I’ll be sitting, drawing pictures in the sand |
| And when I see you coming I will rise up with the shout |
| And come running through the shallow waters reaching for your hand |
