Chords

[Verse 1]

G
Oh sinning is a gentilized journey,

take Jesus as your daily guide Though you may feel pure and saintly

   A7                       D
without Him walking by your side

G
And when you come to make your crossing

at the end of the pilgrim's way If you ever will meet your savior,

         A7              D       G
you will surely meet him on that day

[Chorus]

G
Now look at that cold Jordan,

            D    G
look at its deep water

             G    C
Look at that wide river

   G            D       G
Oh heavy mighty billows roll

G
You better take Jesus with you,

       D    G
he's a true companion

       G        C
Oh I'm sure without him

         G          D       G
that you never will make it home

[Verse 2]

G
That awful day of judgment

is coming in the by and by We'll see our Lord descending

       A7            D
in the glory from on high

G
Oh, let us get in touch with Jesus

and in the special love of God And maybe ever get ready

        A7       D        G
when he comes on Jordan's tide

[Chorus]

G
Now look at that cold Jordan,

            D    G
look at its deep water

             G    C
Look at that wide river

   G            D       G
Oh heavy mighty billows roll

G
You better take Jesus with you,

       D    G
he's a true companion

       G        C
Oh I'm sure without him

         G          D       G
that you never will make it home

[Outro]

G
Now what you gonna do,

   D              G
Oh what you gonna say

   G             C
Oh how you gonna feel

         G           D          G
when you come to the end of the way?
