G                                          D                            G
Oh sinner as you tread on life's journey, take Jesus as your daily guide
G                   C        G                                    D
Though you may feel pure and saintly, without Him walking by your side
G                                          D                            G
But when you come to make the crossing at the ending of his pilgrim's way
G                   C        G                                       D  G
If you ever will need your saviour, you will surely need him on that day


Chorus:

G                                         D    G
Now look at that cold Jordan, look at its deep water
G            C    G      D                          G
Look at that wide river, oh hear the mighty billows roll
G                                      D    G
You better take Jesus with you, he's a true companion
G      C    G           D                           G
Oh I'm sure without him that you never will make it home

VERSE 2:

G                           D                       G
That awful day of judgement is coming in the by and by
G                  C          G                D
We'll see our Lord descending in glory from on high
G                                       D                      G
Oh, let us keep in touch with Jesus and in the special love of God
G                  C             G                             D 
 G
And may we ever be called ready when he calls us over Jordan's tide


G                                         D    G
Now look at that cold Jordan, look at its deep water
G            C    G      D                          G
Look at that wide river, oh hear the mighty billows roll
G                                      D    G
You better take Jesus with you, he's a true companion
G      C    G           D                           G
Oh I'm sure without him that you never will make it home

G                         D    G
Now what you gonna do, oh what you gonna say
G                C    G             D          C      G
Oh how you gonna feel when you come to the end of the way?
