Lyrics

Verse 1

Hark! I hear the harps eternal, Ringing on the farther shore,

Verse 2

And my soul, tho' stained with sorrow, Fading as the light of day,

Verse 3

Souls have crossed before me, saintly, To that land of perfect rest;

Chorus

Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Halleluja! Praise the Lamb!

Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Glory to the great I AM!

Verse 1

As I near those swollen waters, With their deep and solemn roar.

Verse 3

And I hear them singing faintly, In the mansions of the blest.

Verse 2

Passes swiftly o'er those waters, To the city far away.
