On Jordan’s Stormy Banks I Stand,
And Cast A Wistful Eye
To Canaan’s Fair And Happy Land,
Where My Possessions Lie.
We Will Rest In The Fair And Happy Land,
Just Across On The Evergreen Shore,
Sing The Song Of Moses And The Lamb, By And By,
And Dwell With Jesus Evermore.
O’er All Those Wide Extended Plains
Shines One Eternal Day ;
There God The Son For Ever Reigns,
And Scatters Night Away.
When Shall I Reach That Happy Place.
And Be For Ever Blest ?
When Shall I See My Father’s Face,
And In His Bosom Rest ?
Filled With Delight, My Raptured Soul Roll
Would Here No Longer Stay,
Though Jordan’s Waves Around Me
Fearless I’d Launch Away.
