Deep river, my home is over Jordan,
Deep river,
Lord, I want to cross over into camp-ground.

Oh chillun! Oh don't you want to go to that
gospel feast,
That promised land, That land where all is peace.
Walk into heaven, and take my seat,
And cast my crown at Jesus' feet.
Lord, I want to cross over into camp-ground.

Deep river, my home is over Jordan,
Deep river,
Lord, I want to cross over into camp-ground, Lord!
