Across the river of Jordan

 Once upon a time/ I was once like you/ young and full of energy/ there was nothing I couldn't do/ but youth fades like the twilight/ and whispers in the wind/ and now I'm just an echo/ of who I was back then

Take me, time, and shake me/ wake me from my dreams/ soon I will be traveling/ across the river of Jordan

A man grows old and tired/ when his time has almost come/ time to look in wonder/ at the world where he came from/ but it's been a good life/ with blessings that abound/ I'll meet you over yonder/ where all is safe and sound

Take me, time, and shake me/ wake me from my dreams/ soon I will be traveling/ across the river of Jordan
