Going to that far away;
Out of the shadows
Into the sunlight of day.
Chorus:
Crossing, crossing one by one;
Crossing to that far, far away;
Crossing, crossing one by one,
Crossing to that far, far away.
2 Crossing the river,
Visions of rapture behold;
Crossing the river,
Into the Savior's fold. [Chorus]
3 Crossing the river,
Angels to bear them away;
Crossing the river,
No lonely hours mar the day. [Chorus]
5[sic] Crossing to meet Him,
Heavens roll back as a scroll;
Crossing to greet Him,
Where love alone 'twines the soul. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [Crossing the river, Going to that far away]
Crossing to That Far, Far Away
