"When They Ring The Golden Bell" lyrics - SISTER ROSETTA THARPE

There's a land beyond the river
That they call the sweet forever
And we only reach that shore by faith's decree
One by one we'll gain the portals
There to dwell with the immortals
When they ring the golden bells for you and me

[Chorus:]
Don't you hear? The bells are ringing
Don't you hear? The angels singing
'Tis the glory, Hallelujah
Yes, Jubilee, oh yes
In that far off sweet forever
Just beyond the shining river
When they ring the golden bells for you and me

We shall know no sin or sorrow
In that heaven of tomorrow
When our hearts shall sail beyond the silvery sea
We shall only know the blessing
Of our Father's sweet caressing
When they ring the golden bells for you and me

[Chorus:]
Don't you hear? The bells are ringing
Don't you hear? The angels singing
'Tis the glory, Hallelujah
Oh, Jubilee, oh yes
In that far off sweet forever
Just beyond the shining river
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
For you and me
