The saving grace of salvation is located in a holy and electing God,
and a sacrificing, suffering , and obedient Savior. Stakes this high can
never rest on my sincerity.

Scripture
“And when Jesus was baptized, immediately he went up from the
water, and behold, the heavens were opened to him, and he saw
the Spirit of God descending like a dove and coming to rest on him;
and behold, a voice from heaven said, “This is my beloved Son,
with whom I am well pleased.” Matthew 3:16,17

I'm on my way to the River of Jordan
Gonna wade right in to the rushing waters
I'm going down to the River of Jordan
And let the cool waters cleanse my soul.
King Naaman was stricken with dreaded leprosy
And he sent for the man of God to pray

And let the cool waters wash your spots away.
So he went right down to the River Of Jordan
He waded right in the rushing waters
He dipped himself in the River of Jordan
And the cool waters made him whole.
Oh, the River of Jordan is many miles away
And this mighty river I may never see
But I'll find myself an alter in an old fashioned church
And my River of Jordan that will be...
