Soon we'll come to the end of life's journey
And perhaps we'll never meet anymore
Till we gather in Heaven's bright city
Far away on that beautiful shore

Now, if we never meet (Never meet) again this side of Heaven (This side of Heaven)
As we struggle through (Struggle through) this world and its strife (This world and its strife)
There's another meeting place (Meeting place) somewhere in Heaven (Somewhere in Heaven)
By the (By the shining) side of the river of life (River of life)
Where the charmin' roses bloom (Roses bloom) forever (Ever and ever)
And where separations (Separations) come no more (Come nevermore)
If we never meet (Never meet) again this side of Heaven (This side of Heaven)
I'll meet you on (Meet you on) that beautiful shore (That beautiful shore)

Here, so often we're parted in sorrow
Benediction often quickens our pain
But we never shall sorrow in Heaven
God be with you till we meet again

Now, if we never meet (Never meet) again this side of Heaven (This side of Heaven)
As we struggle through (Struggle through) this world and its strife (This world and its strife)
There's another meeting place (Meeting place) somewhere in Heaven (Somewhere in Heaven)
By the (By the shining) side of the river of life (River of life)
Where the charmin' roses bloom (Roses bloom) forever (Ever and ever)
And where separations (Separations) come no more (Come nevermore)
If we never meet (Never meet) again this side of Heaven (This side of Heaven)
I'll meet you on (Meet you on) that beautiful shore (That beautiful shore)
