Jordan

A
Oh come in as you tread life's journey

Take Jesus as your daily guide

Tho you may feel pure and safely
    B7                       E
Without Him walking by your side
    A
But when you come to make the crossing

At the ending of your pilgrim's way

If you ever will meet our Savior
        E                      A
You'll surely meet Him on that day


A
Now look at that cold Jordan
              E    A
Look at these deep waters
A                 D
Look at that wide river
   A        E              A
Oh hear the mighty billows roar

You'd beter take Jesus with you
       E         A
He's a true companion
                D
For I'm sure without Him
A                   E       A
That you never will make it o'er



 A
That awful Day of Judgment

Is coming in the by and by

We'll se our Lord descending
   B7             E
In Glory from on high
   A
So let us keep in touch with Jesus

And in his grace the Love of God
A
That we may be ever called ready
        E                      A
When He calls us over Jordan's Tide


A
Now look at that cold Jordan
              E    A
Look at these deep waters
A                 D
Look at that wide river
   A        E              A
Oh hear the mighty billows roar

You'd beter take Jesus with you
       E         A
He's a true companion
                D
For I'm sure without Him
A                   E       A
That you never will make it o'er
 A
Oh what, what you gonna do
   E                    A
Oh what, what you gonna say
                      D
Oh how, how you gonna feel
         A                  E   A
When you come to the end of the way
