Shall we gather at the river,
Where bright angel feet have trod;
By the crystal tide forever,
Flowing by the throne of God?

Chorus:
Yes, we will gather at the river,
The beautiful, the beautiful river,
Gather with you saints at the river
That flows by 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.

[Repeat Chorus]

'Ere we reach the shining river
Lay we ev'ry burden down,
Grace our spirit will deliver,
And provide a robe and crown.

[Repeat Chorus]

Soon we'll reach the shining river,
Soon our pilgrimage will cease;
Soon our happy hearts will quiver
With the melody of peace.
