River of Jordan
To the River of Jordan our savior went, one day
We read that John the Baptist met him there
When John baptized Jesus in Jordan's rushing waters
The mighty power of God filled the air
Well, I'm on my way (to the River of Jordan)
Gonna wade right in to the rushing waters
I'm going down (I'm going down) to the River of Jordan
And let the cool waters cleanse my soul
The River of Jordan is many miles away
And its mighty banks I may never see
I'll find myself an altar in an old-fashioned church
And that will be the River of Jordan for me
Well, I'm on my way (to the River of Jordan)
Gonna wade right in to the rushing waters
I'm going down (I'm going down) to the River of Jordan
And let the cool waters cleanse my soul
Well, I'm on my way (to the River of Jordan)
Gonna wade right in (to the rushing waters)
I'm going down (I'm going down) to the River of Jordan
And let the cool waters cleanse my soul
We read that John the Baptist met him there
When John baptized Jesus in Jordan's rushing waters
The mighty power of God filled the air
Well, I'm on my way (to the River of Jordan)
Gonna wade right in to the rushing waters
I'm going down (I'm going down) to the River of Jordan
And let the cool waters cleanse my soul
The River of Jordan is many miles away
And its mighty banks I may never see
I'll find myself an altar in an old-fashioned church
And that will be the River of Jordan for me
Well, I'm on my way (to the River of Jordan)
Gonna wade right in to the rushing waters
I'm going down (I'm going down) to the River of Jordan
And let the cool waters cleanse my soul
Well, I'm on my way (to the River of Jordan)
Gonna wade right in (to the rushing waters)
I'm going down (I'm going down) to the River of Jordan
And let the cool waters cleanse my soul
