Subject: RE: Songs about 'crossing over'
Here's one I like:

When I come to the river at the ending of day
When the last winds of sorrow have blown
There'll be somebody waiting to show me the way
I won't have to cross Jordan alone

            I won't have to cross Jordan alone
            On my way to my heavenly home
            When the darkness I see, they'll be waiting for me
            And I won't have to cross Jordan alone

Many times I am lonely and I've often been sad
With a heart that is heavy as stone
But there's one thing that cheers me and makes my heart glad
I won't have to cross Jordan alone
