           A
There's a land beyond the river
          D                 A
That they call the sweet forever
                                            E
And we only reach that shore by faith's decree
                              A
One by one we'll gain the portals
         D                 A
There to dwell with the immortals
           A        D      A         E      A
When they ring the golden bells for you and me

           D
Don't you hear the bells now ringing
           A
Don't you hear the angels singing
                         E
'Tis the glory halelujah jubilee
        A
In that far off sweet forever,
        D                 A
Just beyond the shining river
           A        D      A         E      A
When they ring the golden bells for you and me

          A
We shall know no sin or sorrow
          D         A
In that heaven of tomorrow
                                               E
When our hearts shall sail beyond the silvery sea
                         A
We shall only know the blessing
         D               A
Of our Father's sweet caressing
           A        D      A         E      A
When they ring the golden bells for you and me

           D
Don't you hear the bells now ringing
           A
Don't you hear the angels singing
                                E
'Tis the glory halelujah to Jubilee
        A
In that far off sweet forever,
        D               A
Just beyond the shining river
           A        D      A         E      A
When they ring the golden bells for you and me

          A
When our days shall know their number
          D                A
When in death we sweetly slumber
                                          E
When the King commands the spirit to be free
                        A
Nevermore with anguish laden
          D                 A
We shall reach that lovely Eden
           A        D      A         E      A
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
           A        D      A         E      A
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
