[G] [F]
I believe my steps are [C] growing wearier each day
Still I've got another journey on [F] my mind
Lures of this old world have [C] ceased to make me want to stay
And my one regret is [Em] leaving you [F] behind
But if it proves to be His [C] will that I am first to cross
And somehow I've a feeling it [F] will be
When it comes your time to [C] travel likewise don't feel lost
For I will be the first one that [F] you see
And I'll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan
[Bb] I'll be sitting drawing pictures [F] in the sand
[C] And when I see you coming I [F] will rise up with a shout
And [Bb] come [F] running through the shallow [C] water reaching for [F] your hand
Through this life we labor [C] hard to earn our meager fare
It's brought us trembling hands and [F] failing eyes
So I'll just rest here on this shore [C] and turn my eyes away
Until you come then we'll see [F] paradise
[G] And [F] I'll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan
[Bb] I'll be sitting drawing pictures [F] in the sand
[C] And when I see you coming I [F] will rise up with a shout
And [Bb] come running through [F] the shallow [C] water reaching for [F] your hand
I'll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan
