The Jordan Is Rolling

Verse 1

The Jordan is rolling between me and home; I stand on the margin; the summons has come; My Joshua leads me thro' death’s darkest wave; His hand is unerring, and mighty to save.

Chorus

Mighty to save, mighty to save; The Lord is my Leader, and mighty to save.

Verse 2

The world is behind me; life’s trials are o’er; Lo! heav’n is appearing; I see the blest shore; Bright angels are beaming their welcome to me, And God, my Redeemer, in glory I see.

Verse 3

O Saviour, be near me; keep hold of my hand; The waters, tho' surging, will own Thy command; My fears have all vanished; death’s terrors are gone; I walk thro' the river and up to the throne.
