Author: W. T. D. Appears in 52 hymnals Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 4:14 First Line: Over Jordan we shall meet Lyrics: 1 Over Jordan we shall meet,
By and by, by and by,
In a fellowship so sweet,
By and by, by and by;
We shall gather on the shore,
With our kindred gone before,
And the Savior's name adore,
By and by, by and by.
2 All our sorrows shall be past,
By and by, by and by;
We shall reach our home at last,
By and by, by and by;
With the ransomed we shall stand
There, a holy, happy band,
Crowned with glory in that land,
By and by, by and by.
3 There we'll join the ransomed throng,
By and by, by and by,
Chanting love's redeeming song,
By and by, by and by;
There we'll meet before the throne,
There we'll lay our trophies down,
And receive a shining crown,
By and by, by and by. Used With Tune: [Over Jordan we shall meet]
By and By
