There's a land beyond the river That we call the sweet forever And we only reach that shore by fate you see Yes, I want to see my Jesus Shake his hand and hear him greet us When they ring those golden bells for you and me. Don't you hear the bells a ringing Can't you hear the angels singing This glory hallelujah jubilee In that far off sweet forever just beyond the shining river When they ring those golden bells for you and me. When our days have known the number When in death we'll sweetly slumber When the king commands the spirit to be free There'll be no more stormy weather We'll live peacefully together When they ring those golden bells for you and me. Don't you hear the bells a ringing Can't you hear the angels singing This glory hallelujah jubilee In that far off sweet forever just beyond the shining river When they ring those golden bells for you and me...
