Over the river

Hymnal: The Morning Star #78 (1877) First Line: Over the river the crystal stream flows Lyrics: 1 Over the river the crystal stream flows, Over the river the tree of life grows; Over the river each lone pilgrim goes, Thro' the dim portals of death. Close by our threshold the dark angel stands, Beck'ning us on with his pale, trembling hands; Chilling our hearts with the cold icy bands, Stealing each quivering breath. Chorus: Over the river, Over the river, Over the river the streets are of gold. 2 Over the river the streets are of gold, There are enjoyments and pleasures untold; Over the river time never grows old, Bearing the burden of years. There all our sighing and sorrows shall cease, Hushed by the chorus of heavenly peace; Over the river, thrice happy release, We shall be free from our fears. [Chorus] 3 There every tear shall be wiped from our eyes, There, where the sunlight of glory ne'er dies; Lighting forever those fair upper skies, Eden's glad plains to adorn. Over the river, fair kingdom of light, There heaven's mansions forever are bright; Over the river there cometh no night, Long is eternity's morn. [Chorus] 4 Over the river, we've crossed it at last; Over the river our danger is past; Safe in the harbor our barks are moored fast Ne'er from their haven to roam. Then will we sing with the glorified throng, Loud hallelujahs in one happy song; Praising the power that has brought us along, Over the river--at home. [Chorus] Tune Title: [Over the river the crystal stream flows]

Person Name: Unknown Author of "Over the River" in Lasting Hymns In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
