On Jordan's stormy banks I stand,&lt;br&gt;<br /> And cast a wishful eye,&lt;br&gt;<br /> To Canaan's fair and happy land,&lt;br&gt;<br /> Where my possessions lie.<br /> <br /> 2. O the transporting rapt'rous scene,&lt;br&gt;<br /> That rises to my sight!&lt;br&gt;<br /> Sweet fields arrayed in living green,&lt;br&gt;<br /> And rivers of delight!<br /> <br /> 3. There gen'rous fruits that never fail,&lt;br&gt;<br /> On trees immortal grow:&lt;br&gt;<br /> There rocks, and hills, and brooks, and vales,&lt;br&gt;<br /> With milk and honey flow.<br /> <br /> 4. All o'er those wide extended plains,&lt;br&gt;<br /> Shines one eternal day;&lt;br&gt;<br /> There God the Son for ever reigns,&lt;br&gt;<br /> And scatters night away.<br /> <br /> 5. No chilling winds nor pois'nous breath,&lt;br&gt;<br /> Can reach that healthful shore;&lt;br&gt;<br /> Sickness and sorrow, pain and death,&lt;br&gt;<br /> Are felt and feared no more.<br /> <br /> 6. When shall I reach that happy place,&lt;br&gt;<br /> And be for ever blest?&lt;br&gt;<br /> When shall I see my Father's face,&lt;br&gt;<br /> And in his bosom rest?<br /> <br /> 7. Filled with delight, my raptured soul,&lt;br&gt;<br /> Would here no longer stay!&lt;br&gt;<br /> Though Jordan's waves around me roll,&lt;br&gt;<br /> Fearless I'd launch away.<br /> <br /> 8. There on those high and flow'ry plains,&lt;br&gt;<br /> Our spirits ne'er shall tire;&lt;br&gt;<br /> But in perpetual, joyful strains,&lt;br&gt;<br /> Redeeming love admire.<br /> <br /> [[category:Hymns]]<br /> [[category:Lyrics]]<br /> [[category:Public Domain]]<br /> [[category:Public Domain Lyrics]]<br /> [[category:English Lyrics]]<br /> [[category:British English Lyrics]]<br /> [[category:8 6 8 6]]</div>
