I had lived a life of sin in this world now living in I have done forbidden things I shouldn't do I asked a beggar along the way, who wouldn't tell me where to stay Where I'd find real happiness and love that's true Across the bridge, there'll be no more sorrow Across the bridge, there'll be no more pain The Sun will shine across the river And you'll never be unhappy again Bridge: Follow footsteps of the King, you'll hear the voices sing They'll be singing out the glory of the Lamb
On river of Jordan we'll be near, sound of trumpets you will hear And you'll off to that most special place known to man Across the bridge, there'll be no more sorrow Across the bridge, there'll be no more pain The Sun will shine across the river And you'll never be unhappy again Bridge: Across the bridge, there'll be no more sorrow Across the bridge, there'll be no more pain The Sun will shine across the river And you'll never be unhappy again
