|
I believe my steps are growing wearier each day |
|
Still I've got a journey on my mind |
|
The lures of this old world have ceased |
|
To make me want to stay |
|
And my one regret is leaving you behind |
|
If it should prove to be |
|
His will that |
|
I am first to go |
|
And somehow |
|
I've a feeling it will be |
|
When it's your turn to travel likewise don't you feel lost |
|
For I will be the first one that you see |
|
And I'll be waiting on the far side bank of |
|
JordanI'll be waiting, drawing pictures in the sand |
|
And when I see you coming, |
|
I will rise up with a shout |
|
And go running through the shallow water reaching for your hand |
|
Through this world we labor hard to earn our meager fare |
|
It's brought us trembling hands and failing eyes |
|
I'll just sit here on the shore and turn my head away |
|
Until you come then we'll see paradise |
|
And I'll be waiting on the far side bank of |
|
JordanI'll be waiting, drawing pictures in the sand |
|
And when I see you coming, |
|
I will rise up with a shout |
|
And go running through the shallow water reaching for your hand |
|
And I'll be waiting on the far side bank of |
|
JordanI'll be waiting, drawing pictures in the sand |
|
And when I see you coming, |
|
I will rise up with a shout |
|
And go running through the shallow water reaching for your hand |
