Not exactly sure if these words are exact, but the chorus is somewhat like this:
For Jesus will meet me on the banks of that river
He'll carry me to the other side
Though the winds may blow stronger.....

My dad said a man named Charles Johnson, I believe, sings this. I know there is a similar song called, "I Won't have to cross Jordan alone" I know the most well known version of this song is not the same one I need, although there are many similarities. It may even have the same title. Any help is appreciated...thanks...debbie

Charles Johnson and the Revivers sing a song entitled "on the other shore"
Maybe this is it?

As best I can recall:
V1
There's a mountain, in my pathway, that I must climb
There's a wilderness, out in front of me, that I must go through
There's a river, I must cross, just before I get home
But I won't, have to cross it alone
CH
Cause Jesus, will meet me (you), at the bank of that river
He will take, me (you) to, the other side
The waters, may be troubled, the winds may blow strong
But I (you) won't, have to cross it alone
(V2)
To my brothers, and my sisters, who have walked the straight and narrow
Sometimes, the road, it seems so long
But if you come down, to old Jordan, just before I get home
No you won't, have to cross it, alone

Hope this helps!

V1There are hills in my pathway that I must climb
There's a wilderness out in front of me that I must go through
There's a river I must cross just before I get home, but I won't have to cross it alone.
Chorus
Jesus will meet me at the bank of the river. He'll take me to the other side. The water may be troubled the wind may blow strong but I won't have to cross out alone
Chorus.
V2 Now this road I travel is called the straight and narrow
and I'll take each step in Jesus name
when I come down to the river just this side of that sweet forever I won't have to cross it alone.
Chorus
V3 To my sister's and brother's on this road to life eternal
Sometimes the way seems so cold
When you come down to the Jordan just this side of home you won't have to cross it alone
Chorus Jesus will meet you at the bank of the river
He'll take you to the other side
The water may be troubled the wind may blow strong
But you won't have to cross our alone.
Repeat Chorus
