347 ON JORDAN'S STORMY BANKS I STAND (E)

---

On Jordan's stormy banks I stand, And cast a wishful eye To Canaan's fair and happy land, Where my possessions lie.

Chorus

We will rest in the fair and happy land,(by and by) Just across on the evergreen shore; Sing the song of Jesus Chirst the Lamb by and by, And dwell with Jesus evermore.

O'er all those wide extended plain Shines one eternal day; There Christ, the Sun, for ever reigns, And scatters night away.

Chorus

We will rest in the fair and happy land, Just across on the evergreen shore; Sing the song of Jesus Chirst the Lamb by and by, And dwell with Jesus evermore.

When shall I reach that happy place, And be forever blest? When shall I see my Father's face, And in His kingdom rest?

Chorus

We will rest in the fair and happy land, Just across on the evergreen shore; Sing the song of Jesus Chirst the Lamb by and by, And dwell with Jesus evermore.

Filled with delight, my raptured soul Would here no longer stay; Though Jordan's waves around me roll, Fearless I'd launch away.

Chorus

We will rest in the fair and happy land, Just across on the evergreen shore; Sing the song of Jesus Chirst the Lamb by and by, And dwell with Jesus evermore.
