There's a land beyond the river
That we call the sweet forever
And we only reach that shore by
faith's decree.
One by one we gain the portals,
there to dwell with the immortals.
when they ring the golden
bells for you and me.
Don't you hear the bells now ringing?
Don't you hear the
angels singing?
In that far -off sweet forever,
just beyond the
Shining
River,
When they ring the golden bells
for you and me.
When our days shall know their number,
When in death we sweetly slumber,
When the king commands the spirit to be free,
Nevermore with anguish laden,
We shall reach that lovely
Eden
When they ring the golden bells
For you and me
Don't you hear the bells now ringing?
Don't you hear the angels singing?
Tis the glory hallelujah jubilee, ju bilee.
In that far -off sweet forever,
just beyond the shining river,
When they ring the golden
bells for you and me.
