To the river of jordan, our savior went one day
and 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
Chorus:
well i'm on my way, (to the river of jord an)
i'm gonna wade right in, (in the rushing waters)
i'm going down (i'm going down to the river of jordan)
and let the cool waters cleanse my soul
Instrumental
The river of jordan is many miles away
this mighty river i may never see
but i'll find myself an alter,
in an old fashioned church
and that will be
the river if jordan for me
