There's a land beyond the river
That we call the sweet forever
And we only reach that shore
By faith's decree
One by one we'll gain the portals
There to dwell with the immortals
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
Don't you hear the bells now ringing
Don't you hear the angels singing
Tis the glory hallelujah
Jubilee jubilee
In that far off sweet forever
Just beyond the shining river
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
We shall know no sin or sorrow
In that haven of tomorrow
When our bark shall sail
Beyond the silver sea
We shall only know the blessing
Of our father's sweet caressing
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
When our days shall know their number
When in death we sweetly slumber
When the king commands the spirit to be free
Nevermore with anguish laden
We shall reach that lovely aden
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
Don't you hear the bells now ringing
Don't you hear the angels singing
Tis the glory hallelujah
Jubilee jubilee
In that far off sweet forever
Just beyond the shining river
When they ring the golden bells
When they ring the golden bells
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
