Oh,
you got Jesus, hold him fast
One
more river to cross
Oh,
better love was never told
One
more river to cross
Tis
stronger than an iron hand
One
more river to cross
Tis
sweeter than honey comb
One
more river to cross
Oh,
wasn’t that a wide river
River
of Jordan, Lord,
Wide
river
There’s
one more river to cross
Oh,
the good old chariot passing by
One
more river to cross
She
jarred the earth an’ shook the sky
One
more river to cross
The
good old chariot passing by
One
more river to cross
I
pray, good Lord, shall I be one?
One
more river to cross
Oh,
wasn’t that a wide river
River of Jordan, Lord,
Wide
river
There’s
one more river to cross
