Author: Samuel Stennett Hymnal: Great Revival Hymns No. 2 #189 (1913) First Line: On Jordan's stormy banks I stand Lyrics: 1 On Jordan’s stormy banks I stand,
And cast a wishful eye
To Canaan’s fair and happy land,
Where my possessions lie,
To Canaan’s fair and happy land,
Where my possessions lie.
2 O the transporting, rapturous scene,
That rises to my sight!
Sweet fields arrayed in living green,
And rivers of delight,
Sweet fields arrayed in living green,
And rivers of delight.
3 O’er all those wide-extended plains
Shines one eternal day;
There God the Son forever reigns,
And scatters night away,
There God the Son forever reigns,
And scatters night away. Languages: English Tune Title: [On Jordan's stormy banks I stand]
