In robes made white thro’ Je­sus’ blood!
We soon shall meet be­yond the flood,
And hold sweet con­verse, free from pain,
Nor ev­er fear to part again,
Beyond the swell­ing flood.

Refrain

Beyond the swell­ing flood!
Beyond the swell­ing flood!
Beyond the swell­ing flood,
We’ll meet to part no more!
We’ll meet to part no more,
We’ll meet to part no more,
We’ll meet to part no more,
Beyond the swell­ing flood!

I fear not now what ills may come:
By faith I see my heav’n­ly home,
And hear the an­gel voices say,
Thy God shall wipe all tears away,
Beyond the swell­ing flood!

Refrain

O meet­ing blest, with friends so dear!
What sounds shall greet the list’n­ing ear!
What thrills of rap­ture wake the soul
As back those gold­en gates shall roll,
Beyond the swell­ing flood!

Refrain

Dear Sav­ior, guide my will­ing feet,
That I may have that joy com­plete;
And live to praise thro’ end­less day
The love that dries all tears away.
Beyond the swell­ing flood!
