On Jordan\u2019s bank
www.youtube.com<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
  1. On Jordan\u2019s bank, the Baptist\u2019s cry
    Announces that the Lord is nigh;
    Awake, and hearken, for he brings
    Glad tidings of the King of kings!<\/li>
  2. Then cleansed be every christian breast
    And furnished for so great a Guest.
    Yea, let us each our hearts prepare
    For Christ to come and enter there.<\/li>
  3. For Thou art our Salvation, Lord,
    Our Refuge, and our great Reward.
    Without Thy grace we waste away,
    Like flowers that wither and decay.<\/li>
  4. To heal the sick stretch out Thine hand,
    And bid the fallen sinner stand;
    Shine forth, and let Thy light restore
    Earth’s own true lovliness once more.<\/li>
  5. All praise, eternal Son, to Thee
    Whose advent sets Thy people free,
    Whom, with the Father, we adore,
    And Holy Ghost, forevermore. AMEN<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
