- 1Shall we meet beyond the river,Where the surges cease to roll;Where in all the bright forever,Sorrow ne’er shall press the soul?Shall we meet, shall we meetShall we meet beyond the river?Shall we meet beyond the river,Where the surges cease to roll?
- 2Shall we meet beyond the river,When our stormy voyage is o’er?Shall we meet and cast the anchorBy the bright celestial shore?Shall we meet, shall we meetShall we meet beyond the river?Shall we meet beyond the river,Where the surges cease to roll?
- 3Shall we meet with Christ our Savior,When He comes to claim His own?Shall we know His blessed favor,And sit down upon His throne?Shall we meet, shall we meetShall we meet beyond the river?Shall we meet beyond the river,Where the surges cease to roll?
