Lyrics:

To the river of Jordan our Savior went one dayAnd we read that John the Baptist met him thereWhen John baptized Jesus in Jordan''s rushing watersThe mighty power of God filled the airI''m on my way(To the river of Jordan)Gonna wade right in(In the rushing waters)I''m goin'' down(I''m goin down to the river of Jordan)And let the cool waters cleanse my soulKing Naimen was stricken with dreaded leprosyAnd he sent for the man of God to prayBut Elijah said to Naimen, go dip yourself in JordanAnd let the cool water wash your spots awaySo he went right down(To the river of Jordan)He waded right in(In the rushing water)He dipped himself(He dipped himself in river of Jordan)And the cool waters made him wholeThe River of Jordan is many miles awayThis mighty river I may never seeBut I''ll find myself an altar in an old fashioned churchMy river of Jordan that will be
