Behold the saints of God
They're waitin' at the river
Behold the saints of God
They're waitin' at the river
Lord, have mercy now
Behold the saints of God
And I can see 'em standing over there waitin'
Down by the river of Jordan
Oh, Lord, yeah
And they are waiting
They are watching
And God knows they're somewhere lookin' for me
Behold the saints of God
And by faith, I can see 'em standin' over there waitin'
Oh, Lord
Just look at the saints of God
Before the burden and the heat of the day and they're waitin' for me
Oh, Lord
Lord, have mercy now, behold the saints of God
And I can see 'em standing over there waitin'
Down by the river of Jordan
Oh Lord, yessah, and they are waitin'
They are watchin'
And I do believe they're somewhere lookin' for me
Behold the saints of God
And I can see 'em standin' over there waitin'
Down by the river of Jordan
Oh Lord, all the prophets gone on before you are waitin' for me
Down by the river of Jordan, oh Lord
Lord, have mercy now, behold the saints of God
And I can see 'em standing there waitin'
Down by the river of Jordan
Oh, oh oh Lord, yessah, and they are waitin'
And they are watchin'
And I do believe they're somewhere lookin' for me
And I've got a dear ol' mother, God
She read the bible to me
She taught me how to pray and she's waitin' for me, down by the river of Jordan, oh Lord
I've got a dear old mother, good Lord
Down by the river of Jordan, oh Lord
Help me Jesus, I've got a mother, good Lord
She taught me how to pray and she's waitin' for me, down by the river of Jordan
Oh, oh Lord, yessah, my mother's waitin'
My mother's watchin'
And I do believe she's somewhere lookin' for me
