[Verse 1] 
FI believe my steps are growing Cwearier each day
Still I've got another journey on my Fmind
Lures of this old world have ceased to Cmake me wanna stay
And my one regret is leaving you beFhind.
[Verse 2] 
FBut if it proves to be his will Cthat I am first to cross
And somehow  I'll be feeling  it will Fbe
When it comes your time to travel  like Cwise don't feel lost
For I will be the first one that you'll Fsee.
[Chorus]
FAnd I'll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan
I'll be Bbsitting drawing pictures in the Fsand
And Cwhen I see you coming I will Frise up with a shout
And come Bbrunning through the Fshallow water rCeaching for your hFand.
[Verse 3] 
(Johnny) FThrough this life we've labored hard to Cearn our meager fare
It's brought us trembling hands and failing Feyes
(June) So I'll just rest here on this shore and Cturn my eyes away
Until you come then we'll see paraFdise.
[Chorus]
FAnd I'll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan
I'll be Bbsitting drawing pictures in the Fsand
And Cwhen I see you coming I will Frise up with a shout
And come Bbrunning through the Fshallow water rCeaching for your hFand.
FAnd I'll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan
I'll be Bbsitting drawing pictures in the Fsand
And Cwhen I see you coming I will Frise up with a shout
And come Bbrunning through the Fshallow water rCeaching for your hFanBbd.F
