I Won't Have to Cross Jordan Songtext
von Johnny Cash

When I come to the river at the ending of day
When the last winds of sorrow have blown
There′ll be somebody waiting to show me the way
I won't have to cross Jordan alone

I won′t have to cross Jordan alone
Jesus died all my sins to atone
In the darkness I see He'll be waiting for me
I won't have to cross Jordan alone


Often times I′m forsaken and weary and sad
When it seems that my friends have all gone
There is one thought that cheers me and makes my heart glad
I won′t have to cross Jordan alone

I won't have to cross Jordan alone
Jesus died all my sins to atone
In the darkness I see He′ll be waiting for me
I won't have to cross Jordan alone

Though the billows of sorrow and trouble may sweep
Christ the Saviour will care for his own
′Til the end of the journey my soul He will keep
And I won't have to cross Jordan alone


(I won′t have to cross Jordan alone)
(Jesus died all my sins to atone)
In the darkness I see He'll be waiting for me
I won't have to cross Jordan alone
