We Shall Meet Beyond the River

lyricist: Lizzie DeAr­mond, 1916
Composer: A. Q. McLean

We shall meet be­yond the riv­er

We shall ga­ther there some day

With the saints and sing­ing an­gels

Where all tears are wiped away.

We shall meet be­yond the riv­er

On that bright ce­les­tial shore;

We shall meet be­yond the riv­er

Where we’ll praise Him ev­er­more.

We shall meet be­yond the riv­er

If our spir­its are made whole;

We shall meet the star­ry crowned ones

In the king­dom of the soul.

We shall meet be­yond the riv­er

Where the fade­less land­scapes lie;

Where the holy

hap­py dwell­ers

Ne’er shall part

and ne’er shall die.
