Song Meaning of “Far Side Banks of Jordan” by Bluegrass Gospel Project
‘Far Side Banks of Jordan’ is a song about finding peace and hope in the midst of trying times. It expresses the idea that in the afterlife, all our worries and cares will vanish, as if they were on the “far side” of a winding river, providing us comfort. The sight of the “some sweet, sweet mornin’,” would be enough to drive away our worries and our fears, with the promises of glory in the afterlife.
The song speaks to the power of faith and the importance of a steady spiritual compass. As the singer urges listeners to take strength and comfort in the faith of the Lord, we are reminded that no matter how hard times may be, nor how deep our troubles may seem, a brighter future awaits us on the “Far Side Banks of Jordan.”
