Far Side Banks Of Jordan
 
I'll admit my steps are growing wearier each day
Still I've got a certain journey on my mind
Cares of this old world have ceased to make me want to stay
My one regret is leaving you behind

If it proves to be His will - And I am first to cross
And somehow I've a feeling it will be
When it comes your time to travel - Likewise don't feel lost
For I will be the first one that you'll see

Chorus

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 a shout
And come running through the shallow water
Reaching for you hand

Through this life we've labored long to earn our meager fare
It's brought us tremblin hands and fadin eyes
So I'll just sit there on that shore and turn my eyes away
Until you come then we'll see paradise

Chorus

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 a shout
And come running through the shallow water
Reaching for you hand

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 a shout
And come running through the shallow water
Reaching for you hand
Reaching _______for your hand

Back...
