Over the river my loved ones have passed, Over the beautiful river; Safe in the mansions of glory at last, Now they are watching for me. Refrain Watching today, Watching today; Loved ones are waiting, Are waiting my coming today. Over the river with Jesus they rest, Over the beautiful river; Learning and singing the songs of the blest, Yet they are watching for me. Refrain Over the river that sparkles so clear, Over the beautiful river; Oft in the silence their voices I hear, Still they are watching for me. Refrain Over the river, to sever no more, Over the beautiful river; Soon I shall meet them on yonder bright shore, Loved ones now watching for me. Refrain
