Shall we gather at the river,
Where bright angel feet have trod,
With its crystal tide forever
Flowing by the throne of God
chorus:
Yes we’ll gather by the river,
The beautiful, the beautiful river;
Gather with the saints by the river
That flows by the throne of God.
Though the river is quickly raging
And the water is deep and wide
And the wind is swiftly blowing
I'm gonna get to the other side
And though the clouds surround me
There is darkness in the night
Seeing the thunder and the lightning
Flashing in the sky
Fear and doubt around me
There is nowhere I can hide
Until we gather on the other side
Shall we gather
Gather at the River
Shall we gather
Gather at the River
Shall we gather
Gather at the River
Gather on the other side
Shall we gather
Gather at the River
Shall we gather
Gather at the River
Shall we gather
Gather at the River
Gather on the other side
