‘Tis A Blessed Hope, And It Cheers My Soul,
I Shall Rest By And By Over Jordan;
When My Work Is Done And My Crown Is Won,
I Shall Rest, Sweetly Rest Over Jordan.
Over Jordan, Over Jordan, I Shall Rest
Sweetly Rest By And By;
‘Tis A Precious Hope, ‘Tis A Blessed Hope,
I Shall Rest, Sweetly Rest Over Jordan.
‘Tis A Blessed Hope Which My Savior Gives,
I Shall Rest By And By Over Jordan;
I Shall See Him There In His Mansion Fair,
When I Rest, Sweetly Rest Over Jordan.
With A Steadfast Faith I Will Labor On,
I Shall Rest, Sweetly Rest Over Jordan;
O What Joy ‘Twill Be The Redeemed To See,
When I Rest, Sweetly Rest, Over Jordan.
