To the river of Jordan, our savior went one day

And we read that John the Baptist met him there

When John baptized Jesus in Jordan's rushing waters

The mighty power of God filled the air

Chorus:

Well I'm on my way, (to the River of Jord an)

I'm gonna wade right in, (in the rushing waters)

I'm going down (I'm going down to the River of Jordan)

And let the cool waters cleanse my soul

Instrumental

The River of Jordan is many miles away

This mighty river I may never see

But I'll find myself an alter,

In an old fashioned church

And that will be

The River if Jordan for me
