Crowning Glory No. 2 ‎#99

99. Over Jordan

1 In that country which lies over Jordan,
In that sweet Paradise over there,
We are going to dwell with the Savior,
And with Him endless glory share.

Chorus:
Over Jordan,
Over Jordan,
In that sweet Paradise over there,
We are going to dwell with the Savior,
And with Him endless glory share.

2 Over there are the beautiful mansions
That the Savior has gone to prepare,
And the city of God, bright and golden,
With its walls deck'd with jewels rare. [Chorus]

3 All the dear ones we lov'd, and who lov'd us,
We shall meet on that sorrowless shore,
Glorified, made immortal and tearless;
We shall meet there to part no more. [Chorus]

4 We shall there see the face of the Father,
Who for mortals such wonders has done;
Who to die for us while we were rebels,
Sent His only begotten Son. [Chorus]
