RCCG Hymn 191
On Jordan's Bank the Baptist's Cry
"I will come again." - John. 14:3
On Jordan's bank the Baptist's cry Announces that the Lord is nigh; Come then hearken, for he brings Glad tidings from the King of kings.
Then cleans'd be every breast from sin; Make straight the way of God within; Prepare we in our hearts a home, Where such a mighty Guest may come.
For thou art our salvation, Lord, Our refuge, and our great reward, Without thy grace we waste away; Like flow'rs that wither and decay.
Stretch forth thine hand, to heal our sore, And make us rise to fall no more; Once more upon thy people shine, And fill the world with love divine.
All praise, eternal Son, to thee, Whose advent sets the people free, Whom with the Father wer adore, And Holy Ghost, for evermore.
From The Redeemed Hymnal (4th edition) of The Redeemed Christian Church of God.
