We Shall Meet

We shall meet beyond the river By and by, by and by; And the darkness shall be over By and by, by and by. When the toilsome journey' s done And the victory is won, We shall shine forth as the sun By and by, by and by.

We shall strike the harps of glory By and by, by and by; We shall sing redemption' s story By and by, by and by; And the strains forevermore Shall resound in sweetness o' er Yonder everlasting shore, By and by, by and by.

We shall see and be like Jesus By and by, by and by; To himself he will receive us By and by, by and by. Then with joy we shall fulfil All God' s blessed, holy will, And adore and praise him still By and by, by and by.

Yes, our tears shall all cease flowing By and by, by and by; And with power we' ll be showing- By and by, by and by- All the wealth of grace divine, All the depth of wisdom' s mine, Making truth and virtue shine By and by, by and by.
