Lyrics
Chorus
Roll on, roll on, oh, Jordan
The saints will reach your banks in the by and by
Roll on, roll on, oh, Jordan River
We're gonna ride that boat on over to the other side
Verse 1
Joshua led God's people over Jordan, my, my, but it was deep and wide (deep and wide, oo)
They didn't have to hurry, they didn't have to worry
They knew the Lord would be their guide
Chorus
Verse 2
One of these days, we'll make the final journey, see angels all around the throne (around the throne)
We'll never fear the crossing though the waves are tossing
We knew the Lord would take us home
Chorus
Chorus
Tag
To the other side (ride that boat on over to the other side)
To the other side
Roll on, roll on, roll on, oh, Jordan
