See LYRICS


On Jordan's stormy banks I stand,
And cast a wishful eye,
To Canaan's fair and happy land
Where my possessions lie.

Refrain:
Oh, the transporting rapt'rous scene
That rises to my sight;
Sweet fields arrayed in living green
And rivers of delight.

O'er all those wide, extended plains
Shines one eternal day;
There God the Son forever reigns
And scatters night away.

Refrain
