I Got to Cross the River Jordan
Journey of Soul Redemption: Crossing the Jordan River Alone
Lyrics
I got to cross that river of Jordan
I feel the need to navigate the River Jordan
Lord, I got to cross that for myself
I must undergo this journey independently
Says, nobody here can cross that for me
No one else can undertake this crossing on my behalf
Lord, I got to cross that for myself
I am responsible for my own passage
And I got to meet my dear old my mother
I have to reunite with my mother personally
I got to meet her for myself
It is my duty to have this meeting myself
Left nobody here can meet her for me
No one else can facilitate this reunion for me
Lord, I got to meet her for myself
I am accountable for meeting my mother on my own
I got to stand my trial and my judgment
I must face my trial and judgment individually
I got to stand that for myself
I need to endure this trial on a personal level
Left nobody here can stand that for me
No one else can stand in for me during this trial
So I got to stand that for myself
I am obligated to face my judgment without assistance
Jordan river is so hard to swim in
The River Jordan presents a challenging obstacle
I got to cross that for myself
I have to overcome this challenge on my own
Says, nobody here can cross that for me
No one else can handle this task for me
Lord, I got to cross that for myself
I must face the difficulty of crossing the river independently
I got to face my dear savior
I need to confront my savior personally
I got to face him for myself
I am accountable for facing my savior alone
Says, nobody here can face him for me
No one else can face the savior on my behalf
Lord, I got to face him for myself
I must personally confront my savior
And I got to work soul salvation
I have the responsibility to work on soul salvation
Lord, I got to work that for myself
I must engage in the process of soul salvation myself
Left nobody here can work that for me
No one else can carry out this work for me
Says, I got to work out for myself
I am accountable for working on my soul salvation
So I got to meet my mother and father
I need to meet my mother and father personally
I got to meet them for myself
I must be present for this meeting myself
Says, nobody here can meet them for me
No one else can represent me in meeting my parents
Lord, I got to meet them for myself
I am responsible for meeting my parents on my own
Ain't nobody here can stand that for me
No one else can endure the trial on my behalf
Lord, I got to stand that for myself
I have to face the trial and judgment personally
So I got to lie so lonesome graveyard
I must lie in the lonesome graveyard alone
I got to lie there for myself
No one else can lie in the graveyard in my place
Ain't nobody here can lie there for me
I am accountable for lying in the graveyard on my own
Lord, I got to lie there for myself
I must take responsibility for lying in the graveyard
