The blessed contemplation When with trouble here I sigh, I've a home beyond the river That I'll enter by and by. I've a home beyond the river, I've a mansion bright and fair. I've a home beyond the river, I will dwell with Jesus there. 2. Oh how sweet t'will be to meet them, All the ransomed hosts above; Sweeter still to see my Savior, Praise him for redeeming love. 3. I've a home beyond the river, I've a mansion bright and fair. I've a home beyond the river, I will dwell with Jesus there.
