Oh sinner as you tread on life's journey, take Jesus as your daily guide
Though you may feel pure and saintly, without Him walking by your side
But when you come to make the crossing at the ending of his pilgrim's way
If you ever will need your saviour, you will surely need him on that day
Now look at that cold Jordan, look at its deep water
Look at that wide river, oh hear the mighty billows roll
You better take Jesus with you, he's a true companion
Oh I'm sure without him that you never will make it home
That awful day of judgement is coming in the by and by
We'll see our Lord descending in glory from on high
Oh, let us keep in touch with Jesus and in the special love of God
And may we ever be called ready when he calls us over Jordan's tide
Now look at that cold Jordan, look at its deep water
Look at that wide river, oh hear the mighty billows roll
You better take Jesus with you, he's a true companion
Oh I'm sure without him that you never will make it home
Now what you gonna do, oh what you gonna say
Oh how you gonna feel when you come to the end of the way?
ON THE LAST LINE STRUM EACH CHORD ONCE, AND SLOW IT DOWN.
FOR THE REST OF THE SONG JUST STRUM A
DOWN, DOWN, UP, DOWN, UP, DOWN, UP
PATTERN AND YOUR SET.
THIS IS MY FIRST POST ON ANY TAB WEBSITE, SO I HOPE I DIDN'T SCREW UP TOO BAD
