1 O! where are you going, preacher?
I’m gong down to Jordan.
O what for, preacher?
To deliver up the cross.

Chorus:
O, you must be a lover of the Lord,
Of the Lord, of the Lord;
You must be a lover of the Lord,
Or you cant’ go to Heaven when you die.

2 O! where are you going, brother?
I’m gong down to Jordan.
O what for, brother?
To deliver up the cross. [Chorus]

3 O! where are you going, mourners?
I’m gong down to Jordan.
O what for, mourners?
To deliver up the cross. [Chorus]
