There's a Land Beyond the River String Quartet
Kile Smith
There’s a land beyond the river That we call the sweet forever, And that shore, we will reach it one day If we travel onward faithfully. One by one we will gain the portals, There to dwell with the immortals. Can you hear them calling to us, As they ring the golden bells for you and me. Can you hear? The bells are ringing! Can you hear their majesty? ’Tis the Hallelujah Glory, ’Tis the Hallelujah Jubilee! In that sweet forever Just beyond the river, We will sing, “Hallelujah, Glory,” As they ring the golden bells for you and me. —Traditional, alt. K.S.
