On Jordan’s stormy banks I stand,
And cast a wishful eye
On the other side of Jordan, hallelujah!
To Canaan’s fair and happy land,
Where my possessions lie,
On the other side of Jordan, hallelujah!

Chorus:

On the other side of Jordan, hallelujah!
On the other side of Jordan, hallelujah!

Oh! the transporting, rapt’rous scene,
That rises to my sight!
On the other side of Jordan, hallelujah!
Sweet fields, array’d in living green,
And rivers of delight,
On the other side of Jordan, hallelujah!

(Chorus)

O’er all those wide extended plains
Shines one eternal day,
On the other side of Jordan, hallelujah!
There God the Son forever reigns,
And scatters night away,
On the other side of Jordan, hallelujah!

(Chorus)
