One More River to Cross

 

Oh you get Jesus, hold Him fast,
One more river to cross.
Oh, better love was never told,
One more river to cross.
‘Tis stronger than an iron hand,
One more river to cross.
‘Tis sweeter than that honey comb,
One more river to cross Oh wasn’t
that a wide river, River of Jordan, Lord,
Wide river,
There’s one more river to cross. Oh, wasn’t
Wide river,
There’s one more river to cross.

Oh the good old chariot passing by,
One more river to cross.
She jarred the earth and shook the sky,
One more river to cross.
The good old chariot passing by,
One more river to cross.
I pray, good Lord, shall I be one?
One more river to cross. Oh wasn’t
that a wide river, River of Jordan, Lord,
Wide river,
There’s one more river to cross. Oh, wasn’t
Wide river,
There’s one more river to cross.
