Verse 1
There’s a laCnd beyond the river,
That we caFll the sweet foreCver,
And we onCly reach that shore by faith’s decGree;
One by onCe we’ll gain the portals,
There to dweFll with the immorCtals,
When they riCng the golFden belCls for yoGu and mCe
Chorus
DoCn’t you heFar the bells now ringing
Don’t you heCar the angels singing?
’Tis the glCory hallFelujah JubiGlee
In that fCar off sweet forever,
Just beyFond the shining rivCer,
When they riCng the golFden belCls for yGou and mCe
We shall knCow no sin or sorrow,
In that havFen of tomoCrrow,
When our barCque shall sail beyond the silver seGa;
We shall onGly know the blesCsing
Of our FatFher’s sweet caresCsing,
When they riCng the goldFen belCls for yoGu and mCe
When our daCys shall know their number,
And in deaFth we sweetly slumCber,
When the KiCng commands the spirit to be freGe;
NeverCmore with anguish laden,
We shall reaFch that lovely AiCden,
When they riCng the goldFen belCls for yGou and mCe
