1 One by one we are crossing the river;
Naught do we fear with our Father to guide;
Sorrow and care we are leaving behind us,
Safety we’ll find on the other side.
Refrain:
Over the river, over the river,
Joyfully gathering one by one;
Peace may be found in that glorious country,
Over the river, when life is done.
2 One by one may our sins be forgiven;
Washed by the tears of repentance away;
Never a cloud spread a shadow in Heaven—
Entering there we’ll find endless day. [Refrain]
3 One by one may we gather together;
When we have all reached that beautiful shore;
Mingling our voices in praise of the Father,
Living with Jesus forevermore. [Refrain]
