Intro: | F | C | G | C | C |

C                               G7           G
I believe my steps are growing wearier each day,
                  G7            C
Still I've got a journey on my mind.
                                      G7
Lures of this old world have ceased to make me wanna stay,
       G                            C
And my one regret is leaving you behind.
 
(Chorus)

C                                              C7
And I'll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan.
         F                               C
I'll be sitting drawing pictures in the sand,
      G             G7             C
And when I see you coming, I will rise up with a shout,
          F                    C             G7               C
And come running through the shallow waters reaching for your hand.

(Inst) | C | F | C | G | C | C |

C                                     G7
But if it proves to be his will that I am first to cross,
      G                             C
And somehow I've a feeling it will be.
                                   G
When it comes your time to travel likewise don't feel lost,
                                         C
For I will be the first one that you'll see.
 
(Repeat Chorus)

(Change Key To D )

   D                                    A7
Through this life we've labored hard to earn our meager fare,
                                             D
It's brought us trembling hands and failing eyes,
                                          A7           A
So I'll just rest here on this shore and turn my eyes away
                                   D
Until you come then we'll see paradise.
 
(Repeat Chorus)
 
(Repeat Chorus)
 
(Outro)  (Repeat The last line of the Chorus)
