Intro: 4/4
A
1. Shall we gather at the river
2. On the margin of the river,
3. Ere we reach the shining river,
4. Soon we’ll reach the shining river,
E E7
Where bright angel feet have trod,
Washing up its silver spray,
Lay we every burden down;
Soon our pilgrimage will cease;
A F#m
With its crystal tide forever
We will walk and worship ever,
Grace our spirits will deliver,
Soon our happy hearts will quiver
E E7 A A7
Flowing by the throne of God?
All the happy golden day.
And provide a robe and crown.
With the melo - dy of peace.
D Bm A F#m
Yes, we’ll gather at the river,
G E7 A A7
The beautiful, the beautiful river;
D Bm A F#m
Gather with the saints at the river
E E7 A
That flows by the throne of God.
