There's a land beyond the river
That they call the sweet forever
And we'll only reach that shore by faith's decree
ย
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
In that far off sweet forever
Just beyond the shining river
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
ย
We shall know no sin or sorrow
In that heaven of tomorrow
When our hearts shall sail beyond the silvery sea (sea)
We shall only know the blessing
Of our Father's sweet caressing
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
ย
Don't you hear the bells now ringing?
Don't you hear the angels singing?
'Tis the glory hallelujah jubilee
In that far off sweet forever
Just beyond the shining river
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
ย
When our days shall know their number
When in death we sweetly slumber
When the king commands the spirit to be free
ย
Nevermore with anguish laden
We shall reach that lovely Eden
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
