Far Side Bank of Jordan Bb

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
My one regret is leaving you behind
If it proves to be his will that I'm the first to go
And some how I've a feeling it will be
When it comes your time to travel
likewise don't feel lost
For I will be the first one that you'll see

And I'll be waiting on the far side bank of Jordan
I'll be sitting drawing pictures in the sand
And when I see you coming I will rise up with a shout
And come running through the shallow waters reaching for your hand
Through this life we've laboured hard
to earn our meager fare
It's brought us trembling hands and failing eyes
I'll just rest here on this shore and turn my eyes away
Until you come then we'll see paradise
