Deep river, my home is over Jordan,

Deep river, Lord, I want to cross over into campground.

Oh, don't you want to go to that gospel feast,

That promised land where all is peace?

Oh don't you want to go to that promised land,

That land where all is peace?

Deep river, my home is over Jordan,

Deep river, Lord, I want to cross over into campground
