432   Shall We Gather at the River




[1]
Shall we gather at the river
Where bright angel feet have trod
With its crystal tide forever
Flowing by the throne of God?

[C]
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.

[C]
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.

[3]
Ere we reach the shining river
Lay we every burden down;
Grace our spirits will deliver
And provide a robe and crown.

[C]
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.

[4]
Soon we ll reach the shining river
Soon our pilgrimage will cease
Soon our happy hearts will quiver
With the melody of peace.

[C]
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.
