Soul Echoes ‎#50

50. I'll Be There

1. There is a land of pure delight,
Where Saints immortal reign;
Infinite day excludes the night,
And pleasures banish Pain.

Chorus:
I'll be there, I'll be there,
When the first trumpet sounds I'll be there.
I'll be there, I'll be there,
When the first trumpet sounds I'll be there.

2. There everlasting spring abides,
And never-with'ring flow'rs;
Death, like a narrow Sea, divides
This heav'nly land from ours.

3 Sweet fields beyond the swelling flood,
Stand dressed in living green;
So to the Jews old Canaan stood,
While Jordan rolled between.

4. Could we but stand where Moses stood
And view the landscape o'er,
Not Jordan's stream, nor death's cold flood,
Should fright us from the shore.
