Over Jordan we shall meet
By and by
by and by;
In that happy land so sweet
By and by;
We shall gather on the shore
With our kindred gone before
And the Savior’s name adore
By and by.
All our sorrows shall be past
By and by
by and by;
We shall reach our home at last
By and by;
With the ransomed we shall stand
There a holy
happy band
Crowned with glory in that land
By and by.
We shall join the heav’nly choir
By and by
by and by;
We shall strike the golden lyre
By and by;
In our home so bright and fair
Where the happy angels are
We shall praise forever there
By and by.
There we’ll join the ransomed throng
By and by
by and by;
Chanting love’s redeeming song
By and by;
There we’ll meet before the throne
Then we’ll lay our trophies down
And receive a shining crown
By and by.
