Shall We Meet

Hymns, 156


1. Shall we meet beyond the river, Where the surges cease to roll, Where in all the bright forever, Sorrow ne’er shall press the soul?

We shall meet, we shall meet, We shall meet beyond the river; We shall meet beyond the river Where the surges cease to roll.

2. Shall we meet in that blest harbor, When our stormy voyage is o’er? Shall we meet and cast the anchor By the fair celestial shore?

We shall meet, we shall meet, We shall meet beyond the river; We shall meet beyond the river Where the surges cease to roll.

3. Shall we meet in yonder city, Where the towers of crystal shine, Where the walls are all of jasper, Built by workmanship divine?

We shall meet, we shall meet, We shall meet beyond the river; We shall meet beyond the river Where the surges cease to roll.

4. Shall 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?

We shall meet, we shall meet, We shall meet beyond the river; We shall meet beyond the river Where the surges cease to roll.
