499 – I’ve A Home Beyond The River

O the blessed contemplation, When with trouble here I sigh; I’ve a home beyond the river, That I’ll enter by and by.

I’ve a home beyond the river, I’ve a mansion bright and fair; I’ve a home beyond the river I will dwell with Jesus there.

Just a little more labor, Tell the story watch and pray, Just a few more earthly sorrows, Then to heaven we’ll fly away.

I’ve a home beyond the river, I’ve a mansion bright and fair; I’ve a home beyond the river I will dwell with Jesus there.

O how sweet ‘twil be to meet them All the ransomed host above; Sweeter still to see the Savior, Praise Him for redeeming love.

I’ve a home beyond the river, I’ve a mansion bright and fair; I’ve a home beyond the river I will dwell with Jesus there.

Tho the world is filled with sorrow And the teardrops often fall, There will be but joy and gladness Safely inside the jasper wall.

I’ve a home beyond the river, I’ve a mansion bright and fair; I’ve a home beyond the river I will dwell with Jesus there.

Tho the hills are rough and stony, And the valleys dark and cold, I must walk the path before me It will someday turn to gold.

I’ve a home beyond the river, I’ve a mansion bright and fair; I’ve a home beyond the river I will dwell with Jesus there.
