Oh stranger as you're treading life's journey
|
Take Jesus as your daily guide
|
Though you may feel pure and safe here,
|
Without Him walking by your side
|
But when you come to make the crossing
|
At the end of lifes pilgrim way
|
If you're ever gonna need our Savior,
|
You'll surely need Him on that day.
|
|
Chorus:
|
(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
|
(And I'm) sure without Him
|
That you never will make it o'er
|
|
That awful day of judgement,
|
Is coming in the by and by
|
We'll see our Lord descending
|
In glory from on high
|
So let's keep in touch with Jesus
|
And in His precious love abide
|
That we ever may be so ready
|
When we cross over Jordan's tide
|
|
Chorus
|
|
(Oh what) what you gonna do?
|
(Oh what) what you gonna say?
|
How you gonna feel?
|
When you've come to the end of the way?
