[C] Shall we gather at the river,  [G7] where bright angel feet have [G] trod,  [C] With its crystal tide forever,  [G] flowing by the [G7] throne of [C] God?

[ CHORUS ] - - - - - 

[C] On the margin of the river,  [G7] washing up its silver [G] spray.  [C] We will talk and worship ever,  [G] all the [G7] happy golden [C] day.

[ CHORUS ] - - - - -

[C] Ere we reach the shining river,   [G7] lay we every burden [G] down.   [C] Grace our spirits will deliver,   [G] and provide a [G7] robe and [C] crown.

[ CHORUS ] - - - - -  [F] Yes, we'll gather [C] at the river, [G] the beautiful, the [G7] beautiful [C] river, [F] Gather with the saints at the [C] river, [G] that flows by the [G7] throne of [C] God.

                 SCROLL DOWN HERE

[C] At the smiling of the river,   [G7] mirror of the Savior's [G] face.   [C] Saints, whom death will never sever,   [G] lift their [G7] songs of saving [C] grace.

[ CHORUS ] - - - - - 

[C] Soon we'll reach the silver river,   [G7] soon our pilgrimage will [G] cease.   [C] Soon our happy hearts will quiver,  [G] with the [G7] melody of [C] peace.

[  CHORUS ] - - - - - [F] Yes, we'll gather [C] at the river, [G] the beautiful, the [G7] beautiful [C] river, [F] Gather with the saints at the [C] river, [G] that flows by the [G7] throne of [C] God. ]
