¶Lyrics / Text

1 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'll gather at the river, the beautiful, the beautiful river; Gather with the saints at the river That flows by the throne of God. 2 On the margin of the river, Washing up its silver spray, We will walk and worship ever, All the happy golden day. Yes, we'll gather ... 3 On the bosom of the river, Where the Savior-King we own, We shall meet and sorrow never, ‘Neath the glory of the throne. Yes, we'll gather ... 4 Ere we reach the shining river, Lay we every burden down; Grace our spirits will deliver, And provide a robe and crown. Yes, we'll gather ... 5 At the smiling of the river, Rippling with the Saviour's face, Saints, whom death will never sever, Lift their songs of saving grace. Yes, we'll gather ... 6 Soon we'll reach the shining river, Soon our pilgrimage will cease; Soon our happy hearts will quiver With the melody of peace. Yes, we'll gather ...
