Emmylou Harris - 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
