When They Ring Those Golden Bells
Emmylou Harris
3/4 timing [Intro] [Verse] There’s a land beyond the river That they call the sweet forever And we only reach that shore by faith you see Yes I want to see my Jesus Shake his hand and have Him greet us When they ring those golden bells for you and me Don’t you hear the bells are ringing Can’t you hear the angels singing It’s a glory hallelujah jubilee In the far off great forever Just beyond the shining river When they ring those golden bells for you and me [Instrumental] [Verse] When our days have know their number When in death we sweetly slumber When the King commands the spirit to be free There’ll be no more stormy weather We’ll live peacefully together When they ring those golden bells for you and me Don’t you hear the bells are ringing Can’t you hear the angels singing It’s a glory hallelujah jubilee In the far off great forever Just beyond the shining river When they ring those golden bells for you and me When they ring those golden bells for you and me (vocal only) [Outro]
