HYMN STORY:

“Beautiful River,” also known as “Shall We Gather at the River,” was written by Robert Lowry in 1864 and became one of the most treasured hymns in Christian worship history. Inspired by the biblical imagery of the river of life flowing from the throne of God, the hymn speaks about eternal hope, heavenly reunion, peace, and faith beyond earthly struggles. Its comforting melody and uplifting message have made it especially meaningful in church services, revivals, memorial gatherings, and devotional worship.

FULL LYRICS:

1.

Shall we gather at the river,

Where bright angel feet have trod;

With its crystal tide forever

Flowing by the throne of God?

2.

On the margin of the river,

Washing up its silver spray,

We will walk and worship ever,

All the happy golden day.

3.

Ere we reach the shining river,

Lay we every burden down;

Grace our spirits will deliver,

And provide a robe and crown.

4.

Soon we’ll reach the shining river,

Soon our pilgrimage will cease;

Soon our happy hearts will quiver

With the melody of peace.

CHORUS:

Yes, we’ll gather at the river,

The beautiful, the beautiful river—

Gather with the saints at the river

That flows by the throne of God. Amen.
