In robes made white thro’ Jesus’ blood!
We soon shall meet beyond the flood
And hold sweet converse
free from pain
Nor ever fear to part again
Beyond the swelling flood.
Beyond the swelling flood!
Beyond the swelling flood!
Beyond the swelling flood
We’ll meet to part no more!
We’ll meet to part no more
We’ll meet to part no more
We’ll meet to part no more
Beyond the swelling flood!
I care not now what ills may come:
By faith I see my heav’nly home
And hear the angel voices say
Thy God shall wipe all tears away
Beyond the swelling flood!
O meeting blest
with friends so dear!
What sounds shall greet the listening ear!
What thrills of rapture wake the soul
As back those golden gates shall roll
Beyond the swelling flood!
Dear Savior
guide my willing feet
That I may have that joy complete;
And live to praise thro’ endless day
The love that dries all tears away.
Beyond the swelling flood!
