On Jordan's Stormy Banks

4 5  6  -6      6  5   4   -4   4
On  Jor-dan's stor-my banks I stand,

 4   -4 -4  -4  6-5  5
And cast a wish-ful eye

4 5  6   -6    6    5   4  -4   4
To  Can-aan's fair and hap-py land,

  4   -4 -5  5-4  4-3    4
Where my pos-ses-sion's lie.

Chorus-

 4  -4   5    5  5    5  -4   5  -5  6    6  -5  5
We will rest in the fair and hap-py land, by and by,

 6   6  -6   -6 -6  6  6   5    -4-55
Just a-cross on the e-ver-green shore, 

 4    -4   5  5  5  -4   5  -5   6    6  -5  5
Sing the song of Mo-ses and the Lamb, by and by,

 5   -4    -5   5 -4  4 -3   4
And dwell with Je-sus e-ver-more.


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