==VERSE==
A
There's a land beyond the river
D A
That they call the sweet forever
E Esus4 E
And we only reach that shore by faith's decree
E7 A
One by one we'll gain the portals
D A
There to dwell with the immortals
A D A E A Asus4 A
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
`
`
==CHORUS==
D
Don't you hear the bells now ringing
A
Don't you hear the angels singing
A Asus4 A Asus4 E Esus4 E
'Tis the glory halelujah to believe
A A7
In that far off sweet forever,
D A Asus4
Just beyond the shining river
A D A E A Asus4 A
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
`
`
==VERSE==
A A7
We shall know no sin or sorrow
D A
In that heaven of tomorrow
E Esus4 E
When our hearts shall sail beyond the silvery sea
E7 A
We shall only know the blessing
D A Asus4
Of our Father's sweet caressing
A D A E A Asus4 A
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
`
`
==CHORUS==
D
Don't you hear the bells now ringing
A Asus4 A Asus4
Don't you hear the angels singing
A Asus4 E Esus4 E
'Tis the glory halelujah to Jubilee
A A7
In that far off sweet forever,
D A Asus4
Just beyond the shining river
A D A E A Asus4 A
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
`
`
==VERSE==
A A7
When our days know their number
D A Asus4
When in death we sweetly slumber
A Asus4 A Asus4 E Esus4 E
When the King commands the spirit to be free
E7 A
Nevermore with anguish laden
D A Asus4
We shall reach that lovely Eden
A D A E A Asus4
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
A D A E A
When they ring the golden bells for you and me
