Shall we gather at the river
Where bright angels feet have trod
With its crystal tide forever
Flowing from the throne of God
Oh, yes, we'll gather at the river
The beautiful, the beautiful river
Gather with the saints at the river
That flows from the throne of God
On the margin of the river
Washing up its silver spray
We shall walk and worship ever
All the happy golden day
Oh, yes, we'll gather at the river
The beautiful, the beautiful river
Gather with the saints at the river
That flows from the throne of God
Ere we reach the shining river
Lay we every burden down
Grace our spirits will deliver
And provide a robe and crown
Oh, yes, we'll gather at the river
The beautiful, the beautiful river
Gather with the saints at the river
That flows from the throne of God
Soon we'll reach the shining river
Then our pilgrimage will cease
Soon our happy hearts will quiver
With the melody of peace
Oh, yes, we'll gather at the river
The beautiful, the beautiful river
Gather with the saints at the river
That flows from the throne of God
