Lyrics

I'm going down to the River Jordan
To touch the waters of history
The Lord has blessed that mighty river
In the land of Bible mystery

When the Israelites crossed the desert
And came to the promised land
The River Jordan was flooded
Blocking all they had planned
But the priests who carried the arc
Stepped in and the waters spread out
The army walk right through to Jericho
And conquered them with a mighty shout

Then there's the story of Naaman
A victim of leprosy
He came to Elisha for for a healing
In the book of Kings history
Elisha dipped him in the Jordan
Seven times and he was healed
Then Elisha parted the waters
The power of God was revealed...CH

The greatest story was yet to come
For the River Jordan's legacy
When John the Baptist baptised Jesus
For all the world to see
And God said this is My Son
In whom I am well pleased
And now the Jordan is a holy place
For all who have believed
