Author: D. Merrit Casey Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8297 First Line: There’s a deep, turbid river flowing on before Lyrics: 1 There’s a deep, turbid river flowing on before,
And its waters are deep and wide;
But faith sees a light, yes, a beacon bright,
Just down by the river side.
Refrain:
There’s a light at the river, a light at the river;
A light at the river I can see;
My Lord will stand and hold in His hand,
A light at the river for me.
2 O’er the dark, foaming waters, from the unseen shore,
Angel bands in their beauty glide,
And will bear us away to the realms of day,
Into light on the other side. [Refrain]
3 Many dear ones we’ve loved are from their homes removed,
Dipped their wings in the mystic tide;
They have passed o’er the deep, where they’ll ne’er more weep,
In the light on the other side. [Refrain]
4 To this deep, endless river we must one day come,
And we’ll cross o’er its waters wide;
How happy we’ll be, if by faith we see
The light on the other side. [Refrain]
