God Will Be First

When to Jordan bank I came No where to go, I could not cross I knelt all broken and ashame Then a man stood there to carry me across Cho. Put your feet in the water he said And set the ark before, I will be first Trust me in your heart, I have led Your father's in the red sea, God will be first The desert behind was cold and so bare Lord, I am weary, I have no return Shake my doubt again, like a Sinai here By faith alone your power I discern My father is sleeping for you to come On the wake up morning, mother waits for you All the bride resplendant, now ransome Me, for your love alone is forever and true. I stood there that day, O, hear what I say The waters rolled into piles, a mighty dome The man with sword, O, he made a way Faith parted my Jordan, faith leads me home
