Across The Bridge

(album: We Thank Thee - 1962)

I have lived a life of sin in this world I'm living in
I have done forbidden things I shouldn't do
I asked a beggar along the way, if he could tell me where to stay
Where I could find real happiness and love that's true

Across the bridge, there's no more sorrow
Across the bridge, there's no more pain
The Sun will shine across the river
And you'll never be unhappy again

Follow the footsteps of the King till you hear the voices ring
They'll be singing out the glory of the land
The river Jordan will be near, the sound of trumpets you will hear
And you'll behold the most precious place ever known to man

Across the bridge, there's no more sorrow
Across the bridge, there's no more pain
The Sun will shine across the river
And you'll never be unhappy again

Across the bridge, there's no more sorrow
Across the bridge, there's no more pain
The Sun will shine across the river
And you'll never be unhappy again

Across the bridge, there's no more sorrow
Across the bridge, there's no more pain
The Sun will shine across the river
And you'll never be unhappy again
