Album: Get Away Jordan
Chorus
Just like, John in the Jordan
Just like, John in the Jordan
Just like John in the Jordan
Wash my sins (all) away
Brother Pool was standing with his hands up in the air
Robed in white with water to his waist
Gathered with a congregation on a Sunday afternoon
We stood there on the riverbank and prayed
Chorus
Daddy held my mother's hand as she was next in line
She never learned to swim and was afraid
But she faced her fear of water, took a breath and closed her eyes
And went under for the Lord to show her faith
Chorus
Bridge
One by one they came up testifying (testifying)
I couldn't wait to be the next to shine
Chorus
Just like, John in the Jordan
Just like, John in the Jordan
John in the Jordan, Lord
Wash my sins away, away Oooohhhhh
