When I come to the river at the ending of day

When the last winds of sorrow have blown

There'll be somebody waiting to show me the way

I won't have to cross Jordan alone

I won't have to cross Jordan alone Jesus died all my sins to atone

In the darkness I see he'll be waiting for me

I won't have to cross Jordan alone

[ piano ]

Often times I'm weary and troubled and sad

When it seems that my friends have all flon

There is one thought that cheers me and makes my heart glad

I won't have to cross Jordan alone

I won't have to cross Jordan alone...

[ guitar ]

Though the billows of trouble and sorrow may sweep

Christ the Saviour will care for his own

Till the end of my journey my soul he will keep

And I won't have to cross Jordan alone

I won't have to cross Jordan alone...
