River Jordan

'Go to the river Jordan', said the prophet to the king

'Wash in that murky water seven times and you'll be clean'

Yeah, that deep rollin' river's gonna make you new and whole

And the faith acquired in you will save your soul

Let's go down to the river, raise our voices and pray

And get ourselves a snow white robe to wear

Take away all the stains, remove each and every one

In the name of the Father and the Son

Jesus said to John the Baptist, burry me in that cold grave

In the Jordan's icy water, I will show you all the way

And a light came down from Heaven saying this is My own son

And I sure am please with what has just been done

Let's go down to the river, raise our voices and pray

And get ourselves a snow white robe to wear

Take away all the stains, remove each and every one

In the name of the Father and the Son

I'm looking for the river Jordan, that old life giving stream

Within it's wave of mercy sweet forgiveness ever teamed

I'm a weary broken soul living in a house of clay

And that river's gonna wash my sins away

Let's go down to the river, raise our voices and pray

And get ourselves a snow white robe to wear

Take away all the stains, remove each and every one

In the name of the Father and the Son
