Alone in this life
With my doubts and my fears
My heartache and sorrow
My sadness and tears
But there's comin' a day
When I'm goin' home
And I'm not gonna cross
That Jordan river alone
I say, I'm not gonna cross
The Jordan alone
The Lord will be there
To welcome me home
There I will live
In Canaan's fair land
That's where I'll stay
And never come back
Are you downhearted
And burdened with care
Looking for someone
Your burdens to share
Just turn to God
He'll rescue your soul
And you won't have to cross
Jordan's river alone
I say, You won't have to cross
The Jordan alone
The Lord will be there
To welcome you home
There you will live
In Canaan's fair land
That's where you'll stay
And never come back
I say, I'm not gonna cross
The Jordan alone
The Lord will be there
To welcome me home
There I will live
In Canaan's fair land
That's where I'll stay
And never come back
