I’ve had a lot of troubles and trials in my little life span; When I’m standing alone and the battle gets hard, I always do the best I can. I’ve crossed a million valleys and shed a million tears, But when I come to the River of Jordan, Hallelujah, then I’ll have no fear; then … Continue reading One More River
