Cold Jordan

Lyrics By: Traditional Music By: Traditional

Oh sinner as you tread on life's journey, take Jesus as your daily guide Though you may feel pure and saintly, without Him walking by your side But when you come to make the crossing at the ending of his pilgrim's way If you ever will need your saviour, you will surely need him on that day

Now look at that cold Jordan, look at its deep water Look at that wide river, oh hear the mighty billows roll You better take Jesus with you, he's a true companion Oh I'm sure without him that you never will make it home

That awful day of judgement is coming in the by and by We'll see our Lord descending in glory from on high Oh, let us keep in touch with Jesus and in the special love of God And may we ever be called ready when he calls us over Jordan's tide

Now what you gonna do, oh what you gonna say Oh how you gonna feel when you come to the end of the way?
