1. My brudder* sittin' on de tree of life,

An' he yearde when Jordan roll;

Roll, Jordan, Roll, Jordan, ùRoll, Jordan, roll!

O march de angel march,

O march de angel march;

O my soul arise in Heaven, Lord,

For to yearde when Jordan roll.

2. Little chil'en, learn to fear de Lord,

And let your days be long;

Roll, Jordan, &c.

3. O, let no false nor spiteful word

Be found upon your tongue;

Roll, Jordan, &c.
