Jerry Garcia
Cold Jordan (Live at the Fillmore East, New York City, May 15, 1970)
[Verse 1]
Oh, sinning is a gentilized journey, take Jesus as your daily guide
Though you may feel pure and saintly without Him walking by your side
But when you come to make your crossing at the end of the pilgrim's way
If you ever will meet your savior, you will surely meet him on that day
[Chorus]
Now look at that cold Jordan, look at its deep water
Look at that wide river, oh heavy mighty billows roll
You better take Jesus with you, He's a true companion
Oh, I'm sure without him that you never will make it home
[Verse 2]
That awful day of judgment is coming in the by and by
We'll see our Lord descending in the glory from on high
Oh, let us get in touch with Jesus and in the prеcious love of God
And maybe evеr get ready when He comes on Jordan's tide
[Chorus]
Now look at that cold Jordan, look at its deep water
Look at that wide river, oh heavy mighty billows roll
You better take Jesus with you, He's a true companion
Oh, I'm sure without him that you never will make it home
[Outro]
Now what you gonna do
Oh, what you gonna say
Oh, how you gonna feel when you come to the end of the way?
Good night
