There's a land beyond the river |
|
That we call the sweet forever |
|
And we only reach that shore by fate you see |
|
Yes, I want to see my Jesus |
|
Shake his hand and hear him greet us |
|
When they ring those golden bells for you and me. |
|
Don't you hear the bells a ringing |
|
Can't you hear the angels singing |
|
This glory hallelujah jubilee |
|
In that far off sweet forever just beyond the shining river |
|
When they ring those golden bells for you and me. |
|
When our days have known the number |
|
When in death we'll sweetly slumber |
|
When the king commands the spirit to be free |
|
There'll be no more stormy weather |
|
We'll live peacefully together |
|
When they ring those golden bells for you and me. |
|
Don't you hear the bells a ringing |
|
Can't you hear the angels singing |
|
This glory hallelujah jubilee |
|
In that far off sweet forever just beyond the shining river |
|
When they ring those golden bells for you and me... |
