He has Crossed


I was reading Joshua recently how the Lord crossed over Jordan with the Ark of the Covenant, and this poem came to mind.



He has Crossed

He has crossed the Jordan,
Forded the flow,
He has gone before
To where I’m called to go.
Should the Way be rugged
And the path be steep,
No mountain is too hard to climb,
No water is too deep.

Refrain:
He has crossed the River
Forded o’er the flood
And my trust is only
In His atoning blood.

For I know there’s nowhere
Where my Lord’s not been,
There is no depth of suffering
That Jesus has not seen.
He will ne’er abandon
The one who is His own,
Although He was forsaken,
He leaves me not alone.

Refrain:
He has crossed the River
Forded o’er the flood
And my trust is only
In His atoning blood.


No sin He did not die for,
No sadness He can’t share,

No hidden place He has not seen;

Jesus has been there.

He has not forgotten -
He will not forget;

All the Law’s conditions
By Jesus have been met.

 
Refrain:
He has crossed the River
Forded o’er the flood
And my trust is only
In His atoning blood.
