Far Side Bank of Jordan

I believe my steps are growing wearier each day

Still I've got a journey on my mind

Lures of this old world

Have ceased to make me want to stay

And my one regret is leaving you behind

If it proves to be his will

That I am first to go

And somehow I'll be feeling it will be

When it comes your time to travel

Likewise don't you 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 waiting 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

I'll just rest here on the shore

And turn my eyes away

Until you come then we'll see paradise

And I'll be waiting on

The far side banks of Jordan

I'll be waiting 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

And I'll be waiting on

(I'll be waiting over Jordan)

The far side banks of Jordan

I'll be waiting drawing pictures in the sand

(I'll be waiting for you to pedal)

And when I see you coming

(When I see you)

I will rise up with the shout

(I will rise)

And come running through

The shallow waters reaching for your hand
