A LIGHT AT THE RIVER

1. There is a river we must cross over
When life's sun goes to sleep in the west.
There'll be a light for me at the crossing.
Guiding me to the home of sweet rest.

CHORUS: There'll be a light for me at the river
Guiding my soul across the dark foam.
Down through the valley past the dark shadows
Jesus the light will carry me home.

2. When I shall reach the banks of the river
Where the chilled waters murmur their song
Nothing can harm me nothing can alarm me
While I am sailing across to my home.

The Digital Tradition has various songs on the theme of "Light at the River," but they're quite different. I put them in the crosslinks group above, but they probably won't stay there. Click here for a YouTube recording of the DT version.
