Author: R. L. Hymnal: Christ in Song #907 (1908) Hymnal Title: Christ in Song First Line: Shall we gather at the river Refrain First Line: Yes, we'll gather at the river Lyrics: 1. Shall we gather at the river
Where bright angel feet have trod;
With its crystal tide forever
Flowing by the throne of God?
Chorus:
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. [Chorus]
3. Ere we reach the shining river,
Lay we ev'ry burden down;
Grace our spirits will deliver,
And provide a robe and crown [Chorus]
4. Soon we'll reach the shining river,
Soon our pilgrimage will cease,
Soon our happy hearts will quiver
With that melody of peace. [Chorus] Topics: The Home Eternal Meeting in Heaven Languages: English Tune Title: [Shall we gather at the river]
