If we never meet again, this side of heaven

As we struggle through this world and it's strife

There's another meeting place somewhere in heaven

By the side of the river of life

Where the charmin' roses bloom forever

And where separations come no more

If we never meet again this side of heaven

I will meet you on the beautiful shore

Soon, we'll come to the end of life's journey

And perhaps, we'll never meet anymore

'Til we gather in heaven's bright city

Far away on that beautiful shore

Where the charmin' roses bloom forever

And where separations come no more

If we never meet again this side of heaven

I will meet you on that beautiful shore

(I will meet you on that beautiful shore)

Soon, we'll come to the end of life's journey

And perhaps, we'll never meet anymore

'Til we gather in heaven's bright city

Far away on that beautiful shore

If we never meet again this side of heaven

As we struggle through this world and its strife

There's another meeting place somewhere in heaven

By the side of the river of life

Where the charming roses bloom forever

And where separation comes no more

If we never meet again this side of heaven

I will meet you on that beautiful shore

Oh, they say, we shall meet by the river

Where no storm clouds ever darken the sky

And they say, we'll be happy in heaven

In the wonderful sweet by and by

If we never meet again

(If we never meet again this side of heaven)

I will meet you on that beautiful shore

(Beautiful beautiful shore)
