Johnny
I believe my steps are growing wearier each day
still i've got another journey on my mind
lures of this old world have ceased to make me wanna stay
and my only regret is leaving you behind
June
But if it proves to be his will that i am first to go
and somehow i've a feeling it will be
and when it comes your time to travel like wise don't feel lost
for i will be the first one that you'll see
chorus
I'll be waiting On The Far Side Banks Of Jordan
I'll be sitting drawing pictures in the sand
and when I see you comming i will rise up with a shout
and come running through the shallow waters reaching for your hand
Johnny
Through this life we labored hard to earn our meager fare
It's brought us trembling hands and failing eyes
June
So i'll just rest here on this shore and turn my eyes away
untill you come then we'll see paridise
repeat chorus twice
