Emmylou Harris Jordan Lyrics

Jordan Lyrics

(Fred Rich)

Come in as you tread life`s journey 
Take Jesus as your daily guide 
Though you may feel pure and safely 
Without Him walking by your side 
But when you come to make the crossing 
At the ending of your pilgrim`s way 
If you ever will meet our Savior 
You`ll surely meet Him on that day 

Now look at that cold Jordan 
Look at these deep waters 
Look at that wide river 
Oh hear the mighty billows roar 
You`d better take Jesus with you 
He`s a true companion 
For I`m sure without Him 
That you never will make it o`er 
  
That awful Day of Judgment 
Is coming in the by and by 
We`ll se our Lord descending 
In Glory from on high 
So let us keep in touch with Jesus 
And in his grace the Love of God 
That we may be ever called ready 
When He calls us over Jordan`s Tide 

Now look at that cold Jordan 
Look at these deep waters 
Look at that wide river 
Oh hear the mighty billows roar 
You`d better take Jesus with you 
He`s a true companion 
For I`m sure without Him 
That you never will make it o`er 
  
Oh what, what you gonna do 
Oh what, what you gonna do 
Oh how, how you gonna feel 
When you come to the end of the Way
