Tryin' to Get a Glimpse

(I’m standing, standing by the river deep and wide)
Standing by the river
(I’m gazing gazing across the tide the raging tide)
gazing across the raging tide
(I'm standing by the river by the river)
I'm standing by the river
trying to get a glimpse of
I was standing on the banks
what's over on the other side


V1
Standing on the banks of the river
looking beyond, looking beyond
(The River, OOOOO)
standing on the banks of the river
looking for a home, looking for a home
(To Heaven, ahahahah)
just to get a glimpse of
my Jesus in that home
up there on high
Looking for the light of
my Savior up in the sky

REPEAT CHORUS








V2
Standing there waiting for the boatman
ready to go, ready to go
(To Heaven, OOOOOO)
standing there waiting for the
boatman on that shore, on a that shore
(Of Jordan, ahahahahah)
when I see the lights of that city
and behold my Savior there
then I'll know forever
I'll be in my Savior’s care

V3

I was standing on the banks
When I saw that old ship take my Mama home
I was standing on the banks
When Daddy crossed the river
and left me all alone
Now I'm standing on the banks just watching
for my ride to Heaven's golden shores
And I'm trying to get a glimpse of what's
Over on the other side other side

REPEAT CHORUS
trying to get a glimpse of
what's over on the other X4
side…
REPEAT CHORUS X2

TAG
trying to get a glimpse of
what's over on the other X3
