Shall we gather at the river,
Where bright angel feet have trod,
With its crystal tide forever
Flowing by the throne of God?
Yes, we値l gather at the river,
The beautiful, the beautiful river;
Gather with the saints at the river
That flows by the throne of God.
On the margin of the river,
Washing up its silver spray,
We will talk and worship ever,
All the happy golden day.
Yes, we値l gather at the river,
The beautiful, the beautiful river;
Gather with the saints at the river
That flows by the throne of God.
Ere we reach the shining river,
Lay we every burden down;
Grace our spirits will deliver,
And provide a robe and crown.
Yes, we値l gather at the river,
The beautiful, the beautiful river;
Gather with the saints at the river
That flows by the throne of God.
At the smiling of the river,
Mirror of the Savior痴 face,
Saints, whom death will never sever,
Lift their songs of saving grace.
Yes, we値l gather at the river,
The beautiful, the beautiful river;
Gather with the saints at the river
That flows by the throne of God.
Soon we値l reach the shining river,
Soon our pilgrimage will cease;
Soon our happy hearts will quiver
With the melody of peace.
Yes, we値l gather at the river,
The beautiful, the beautiful river;
Gather with the saints at the river
That flows by the throne of God.
