The Cyber Hymnal ‎#1438

1438. Far, Far on the Other Side

1. I217;ve entered the land dearly bought by His blood,
Passed over Jordan, surrendered to God;
I217;ve found His sufficiency here in this land,
Glory to Jesus forever!

Refrain
Far, far on the other side,
I217;m living across the river,
Burned are the bridges 217;twixt me and the world,
Glory to Jesus forever!

2. The giants are conquered the spies said were here,
Jesus is victor, I need have no fear;
Summer in winter and joy all the year,
Glory to Jesus forever! [Refrain]

3. The manna is gone and the corn is my food,
Dead to the world and I217;m living in God;
I217;ve ceased saying can217;t since I found that He could212;
Glory to Jesus forever! [Refrain]
