Author: Robert Lowry Hymnal: Timeless Truths #1048 Meter: 8.7.8.7 with refrain 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?
Refrain:
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 talk and worship ever,
All the happy golden day. [Refrain]
3 Ere we reach the shining river,
Lay we every burden down;
Grace our spirits will deliver,
And provide a robe and crown. [Refrain]
4 At the smiling of the river,
Mirror of the Savior’s face,
Saints, whom death will never sever,
Lift their songs of saving grace. [Refrain]
5 Soon we’ll reach the silver river,
Soon our pilgrimage will cease;
Soon our happy hearts will quiver
With the melody of peace. [Refrain] Topics: Anticipation Scripture: Revelation 22:1-2 Tune Title: HANSON PLACE
