Jordan's Tide
I've walked thru the valley of the shadow of death,
And I watched the angels come and take my loved ones home to rest.
Oh but one day the burden of death will be mine,
When I cross over Jordan's tide.
CHORUS:
On the banks of chilly Jordan
I will lay my burdens down
All the heartaches and teardrops
Laying silent on the ground
Jesus is waiting with arms open wide
When I cross over Jordan's tide.
SECOND VERSE:
If you're there at the crossing when I take my first steps,
Don't grieve or shed a tear as we stand there in the sand.
Many friends and dear loved ones are over on the other side,
When I cross over Jordans tide.
CHORUS:
On the banks of chilly Jordan
I will lay my burdens down
All the heartaches and teardrops
Laying silent on the ground
Jesus is waiting with arms open wide
When I cross over Jordan's tide.
Tag: Can't you hear the celebrating over on the other side
When I cross over Jordan's tide.
We'll all be crossing over Jordan's tide.
