On Jordan's Stormy Banks I Stand

Our congregation will be doing the Indelible Grace arrangement of "On Jordan's Stormy Banks" very soon.

VERSE 1:

On Jordan's stormy banks I stand,

And cast a wishful eye

To Canaan's fair and happy land,

Where my possessions lie.

VERSE 2:

All o'er those wide extended plains,

Shines one eternal day;

There God the Son forever reigns,

And scatters night away.

CHORUS:

I am bound (I am bound)

I am bound (I am bound)

I am bound for the promised land,

I am bound (I am bound)

I am bound (I am bound)

I am bound for the promised land.

VERSE 3:

No chilling winds nor poisonous breath

Can reach that healthful shore;

Sickness, sorrow, pain and death,

Are felt and feared no more.

REPEAT CHORUS

VERSE 4:

When shall I reach that happy place,

and be forever blessed?

When shall I see my Father's face,

And in His bosom rest?

REPEAT CHORUS
