Welcome to Israel.
Thank you.
When he and June made their [F] fifth return visit to the Holy [Bb] Land,
they decided to film it for a documentary.
The resulting film [F] and album, titled,
[Bb] Return to the Promised Land,
[C] showed their [Bb] travels and their talks with local residents.
They toured holy sites and sang many gospel songs
to capture their vision of the Holy Land.
My mother's favorite song was,
I Won't Have to Cross Jordan Alone.
And here on [Ab] the banks of the Jordan River,
it's wonderful to be able to sing it for her memory.
When I come to the river at the ending of day
And [Eb] the last winds of sorrow have [Ab] blown
There'll be somebody waiting to show me the way
I [Bb] won't have to cross [Ab] Jordan alone
[Db] I won't have to cross [Ab] Jordan alone
Jesus [Eb] died all my [Ab] sins to atone
In the darkness I see
He'll [Db] be waiting for me
[Ab] I won't have to [Eb] cross Jordan [Ab] alone
[Ebm]
[Bb] Would you walk that second mile
[Eb] Turn a frown with a smile
[Bb] Would you lift a lowly heart
[F] About to brave
[Bb] Would you also give your cloak
To [Eb] one who took away your coat
[Bb] What on earth will you do [F] for [Bb]
heaven's sake
Would [Eb] you feed the poor in spirit
[Bb] And befriend the persecuted
Will you show the bound
How all their [F] chains can [C] break
[F] Did [Bb] you sow the proper seed
Will you walk out among [Eb] the wheat
What [Bb] on earth will you do [F] for [Bb] heaven's sake
Did you turn the other cheek
Are you counted with the meek
Did you give a little more than [F] you could take
Would [Bb] you shine your little light
For the [Eb] children of the night
What [Bb] on earth will you do [F] for heaven's [Bb] sake
Would you [Eb] feed the poor in spirit
[Bb] And befriend the persecuted
Will you show the bound
How all their [Fm] chains can [C] break
[F] [Bb] Did you sow the proper seed
Will you walk among the wheat
What on earth will you do [F] for [Bb] heaven's sake
[Eb] [Bb]
