Author: R. L. Hymnal: The New Church Hymnal #499 (1976) First Line: Shall we gather at the river Refrain First Line: Yes, we'll gather at the river Lyrics: 1 Shall we gather at the river,Where bright angel feet have trod;With its crystal tide foreverFlowing by the throne of God?Refrain:Yes, we'll gather at the river,The beautiful, the beautiful river,Gather with the saints at the riverThat flows by the throne of God.2 On the bosom of the river,Where the Savior King we own,We shall meet and sorrow never,'Neath the glory of the throne. [Refrain]3 Ere we reach the shining river,Lay we ev'ry burden down;Grace our spirits will deliver,And provide a robe and crown. [Refrain]4 Soon we'll reach the shining river,Soon our pilgrimage will cease;Soon our happy hearts will quiverWith the melody of peace.
