River of Jordan
Louvin Brothers
Intro: A E A A
A E A
To the river of Jordan, our savior went one day
E A
And we read that John the Baptist met him there
A7 D
And when John baptized Jesus in Jordan's rushing waters
A E A
The mighty power of God filled the air
CHORUS 1:
A
Well I'm on my way, (to the River of Jordan)
E
I'm gonna wade right in, (in the rushing waters)
A A7 D
I'm going down (I'm going down) to the River of Jordan
A E A
And let the cool waters cleanse my soul
SOLO (OVER CHORUS)
King Naaman was stricken with dreaded leprosy
And he sent for the man of God to pray
But Elija said to Naaman, go dip yourself in Jordan
And let the cool waters wash your spots away
CHORUS 2:
So he went right down (to the River of Jordan)
He waded right in (in the rushing waters)
He dip himself (he dipped himself) in the River of Jordan
And the cool waters made him whole
The River of Jordan is many miles away
And this mighty river I may never see
But I'll find myself an alter in an old fashioned church
And my River of Jordan that will be
CHOURS 1:
Well I'm on my way, (to the River of Jordan)
I'm gonna wade right in, (in the rushing waters)
I'm going down (I'm going down) to the River of Jordan
And let the cool waters cleanse my soul
