On Jordan’s stormy banks I stand,
And cast a wishful eye,
To Canaan’s fair and happy land
Where my possessions lie.
We’ll stem the storm,
it won’t be long,
The heav’nly port is nigh,
We’ll stem the storm,
it won’t be long,
We’ll anchor by and by.
When shall I reach that happy place
And be forever blest?
When shall I see my Father’s face,
And in His bosom rest?
We’ll stem the storm,
it won’t be long,
The heav’nly port is nigh,
We’ll stem the storm,
it won’t be long,
We’ll anchor by and by.
