When I come to the river
At ending of day 
When the last winds of sorrow have blown 
There'll be somebody waiting
To show me the way 
I won't have to cross Jordan alone 
I won't have to cross Jordan alone 
Jesus died all my sins to atone 
In the darkness I see
He'll be waiting for me 
I won't have to cross Jordan alone 

[ piano ] 
Often times I'm weary and troubled and sad 
When it seems that my friends have all flown 
There is one thought that cheers me and makes my heart 
glad 
I won't have to cross Jordan alone 
I won't have to cross Jordan... 
[ guitar ] 
When the billows of sorrow and trouble may sweep 
Christ the Saviour will care for his own 
Till the end of my journey 
my soul he will keep 
I won't have to cross Jordan alone 
In the darkness I see
He'll be waiting for me 
I won't have to cross Jordan alone 
I won't have to cross Jordan alone 
Jesus died 
all my sins to atone
