I believe my steps are growing wearier each day
Got another journey on my mind
Lures of this old world
Have ceased to make me want to stay
And my one regret is leaving you behind
But if it proves to be his will
That I am first to cross
And somehow I have 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 banks of jordan
I'll be sitting drawing pictures in the sand
And when I see you coming
I will rise up with the shout
And come running through the shallow water
Reaching for your hand
Through this life we've labored hard to earn our meager fare
It's brought us trembling hands and failing eyes
So I'll just rest here on the shore
And turn my eyes away
Until you come
Then we'll see paradise
And I'll be waiting on the far side banks of jordan
I'll be sitting drawing pictures in the sand
And when I see you coming
I will rise up with the shout
And come running through the shallow water
Reaching for your hand
