No night be­yond the ri­ver’s brink!
No hun­ger, toil or pain!
And they who reach that peace­ful clime,
Shall nev­er thirst again.

Refrain

There Je­sus will say to the faith­ful ones,
Welc­ome to me, Wel­come to me;
Rest thee, rest thee,
Safe in thy Fa­ther’s home.

No tears be­yond the riv­er’s brink!
God wipes them all away!
His glory crowns the shin­ing hills
With ev­er­last­ing day.

Refrain

No cross be­yond the riv­er’s brink!
But they who meek­ly bear,
For Je­sus’ sake, the cross on earth,
A crown of life shall wear.

Refrain

O bliss be­yond the riv­er’s brink!
When, all our la­bor o’er,
We clasp, with rap­ture and de­light,
Our dear ones gone be­fore.
