Встретимся ли мы с тобою

Representative Text

1 Встретимся ли мы с тобою,
Где святые все поют,
Где спокойною рекою
Воды чистые текут?

Припев:
Да, мы встретимся с тобою
Над чудною, над чудною рекою;
Там с неумолкаемой хвалою
Иисусу мы будем служить.

2 Над прозрачною рекою,
Чистой, светлой, как кристалл,
Там воскликнем мы с тобою:
Вечный день теперь настал! [Припев]

3 Между нами и рекою
Путь непроходимый был,
Но сколь тяжкою ценою
Агнец нам его открыл! [Припев]

4 Там, в сиянье над рекою,
Лик Христа мы будем зреть,
Кто на землю за тобою
Нисходил, чтоб умереть. [Припев]

5 Скоро будем над рекою,
Скоро путь придет к концу,
Скоро встретимся с тобою,
Вознося хвалу Отцу. [Припев]

In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact.
