Text: | Beyond the River |
Author: | Horace L. Hastings |
Tune: | [Shall we meet beyond the river] |
Composer: | Thoro Harris |
1 Shall we meet beyond the river,
Where the surges cease to roll,
Where, in all the bright forever,
Sorrow ne’er shall press the soul?
Refrain:
Yes, we’ll meet beyond the river,
On fair Canaan’s shore forever;
We shall meet beyond the river,
Where the surges cease to roll
2 Shall we meet in that blest harbor
When our stormy voyage is o’er?
Shall we meet and cast the anchor
By the fair, celestial shore? [Refrain]
3 Shall we meet in yonder city,
Where the tow’rs or crystal shine,
Where the walls are all of jasper,
Built by workmanship divine? [Refrain]
4 Shall we meet with Christ our Savior,
When He comes to claim His own,
Shall we know His blessed favor,
And sit down upon His throne? [Refrain]
