Soon we'll come to the end of life's journey And perhaps we'll never meet anymore 'Til we gather in heaven's bright city - - Far away on that beautiful shore If we never meet again this side of heaven As we struggle through this world and its strife There's another meeting place somewhere in heaven By the side of river of life Where the roses bloom forever And where separation comes no more If we never meet again this side of heaven I will meet you on that beautiful shore O they say we shall meet by the river Where no storm clouds ever darken the sky And they say we'll be happy in heaven In that wonderful sweet by and by If we never meet again this side of heaven As we struggle through this world and its strife There's another meeting place somewhere in heaven By the side of river of life Where the roses bloom forever And where separation comes no more If we never meet again this side of heaven I will meet you on that beautiful shore
