Shall We Gather at the River - Tennessee Ernie Ford

Shall we gather at the river,

Where bright angels he has brought,

With it’s crystal tides forever

Flowing by the throne of God

Yes, we’ll gather at the river.

The beautiful, the beautiful, river.

Gather with the saints at the river,

That flows by the throne of God

Ere we reach the shining river

Lay we every burden down,

Praise our spirits will deliver

And provide our robe and crown.

Yes, we’ll gather at the river.

The beautiful, the beautiful, river.

Gather with the saints at the river,

That flows by the throne of God

Soon we’ll reach the shining river,

Soon our pilgimage will cease,

Soon our happy hearts will quiver

With the melody of peace.

Yes, we’ll gather at the river.

The beautiful, the beautiful, river.

Gather with the saints at the river,

That flows by the throne of God
