Mississippi You're On My Mind

歌詞

I believe my steps are growing wearier each day Still I've got a journey on my mind The lures of this old world have ceased To make me want to stay And my one regret is leaving you behind If it should prove to be His will that I am first to go And somehow I've a feeling it will be When it's your turn to travel likewise don't you feel lost For I will be the first one that you see And I'll be waiting on the far side bank of Jordan I'll be waiting, drawing pictures in the sand And when I see you coming, I will rise up with a shout And go running through the shallow water reaching for your hand Through this world we labor hard to earn our meager fare It's brought us trembling hands and failing eyes I'll just sit here on the shore and turn my head away Until you come then we'll see paradise And I'll be waiting on the far side bank of Jordan I'll be waiting, drawing pictures in the sand And when I see you coming, I will rise up with a shout And go running through the shallow water reaching for your hand And I'll be waiting on the far side bank of Jordan I'll be waiting, drawing pictures in the sand And when I see you coming, I will rise up with a shout And go running through the shallow water reaching for your hand
