[Start]

[Verse]
F                        C                       
■ I believe my steps are growing wearier each day
                                  F      
Still I've got another journey on my mind
                             C                             
Lures of this old world have ceased to make me want to stay
                                 F     
And my one regret is leaving you behind
                           C7                           
But if it proves to be His will that I am first to cross
                              F      
And somehow I've a feeling it will be


[Chorus]
                           C7                             
When it comes your turn to travel likewise don't feel lost
                                 F         
For I will be the first one that you'll see
    F                                              
And I'll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan
Bb                               F          
I'll be sitting drawing pictures in the sand
           C7             F                          
And when I see you coming I will rise up with a shout
Bb                                   F     C7                F   
And come running through the shallow water reaching for your hand


[Verse]
                                         C7                  
Through this life we've laboured long to earn our meagre fare
                                            F   
It's brought us trembling hands and failing eyes
                                          C7               
So I'll just rest there on that shore and turn my eyes away
                              F       
Until you come then we'll see paradise
            F                                      
And I'll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan
        Bb                              F   
I'll be sitting drawing pictures in the sand


[Chorus]
C                                F                   
And when I see you coming I will rise up with a shout
         Bb                  F             C7           F        
And come running through the shallow water reaching for your hand
                   F                           
I'll be waiting on the far side banks of Jordan
Bb                                  F       
I'll be sitting drawing pictures in the sand
               C            C7                F      
And when I see you coming I will rise up with a shout
    Bb           F                   C7                      F    Bb F
And come running through the shallow water reaching for your hand ■  ■
