Hymn 522

1I CAN see beyond the river,
Over Jordan's dashing tide ;
There I'll be with Christ forever,
By my Saviour's bleeding side.

2Over there is no more weeping,
Over there all pain is o'er ;
I shall rest in Jesus' keeping,
I shall sorrow and die no more.

3Over there is no more sighing,
Over there are sunny skies ;
Crowns of fadeless beauty shining,
Blooming flowers of Paradise.

4Over there I'll find my treasure—
Jewels lost long, long ago ;
There to meet beyond all measure,
There my raptured heart shall know.

5Over there all are immortal,
Over there is no more night ;
And the city's pearly portal
Now stands almost in my sight !

6Will you go, dear sinner, with me,
Where the Lamb will ever reign—
Where the loved of earth will greet thee,
And we ne'er shall part again ?
