Christian Hymns ‎#236

236. There Will Be Light at the River

1 After the life-paths we’re treading
End upon time’s solemn shore,
There will be light at the river
While the redeemed ones pass o’er.

Refrain:
There will be light at the river,
There will be light at the river,
There will be light at the river,
While the redeem'd ones pass o’er.

2 There will be light for the spirits
Who thro’ deep shadows have come--
Fadeless light shining glad welcome
Out from the windows of home. [Refrain]

3 There will be light for the weary
Who thro’ sore trials have passed--
Radiant light as they enter
Peace that forever shall last. [Refrain]

4 There will be light for the faithful,
Whate’er the way they have trod--
Glorious light sent to guide them
Safe to the city of God. [Refrain]
