The Evergreen Shore

1We are go-ing o-ver the riv-er, We are go-ing o-ver the tide;
We have wait-ing on the far-ther side at once and lit-tle we know; Go-ing
But we see and feel the ev-er-green shore, The blessed ev-er-green shore.

RefrainGo-ing to the ev-er-green shore, Go-ing to the ev-er-green shore,
We are go-ing to the ev-er-green shore, The blessed ev-er-green shore.

2We are go-ing where the grass grows green, Where the birds sing sweet-ly
Where the ev-er-green shore, Where the faith-ful nev-er of
The dis-cour-ag-ing way, They the light of His coun-te-nance,
And the beat-i-fic day, The won-der-ful day.

3Un-known com-plete, Are riv-ers and fields at Je-
Sus-pense and hope, For Je-sus waits for us on the
Our re-ward with Him; un-der His king-dom great he will
Bright-en the way, With love that lasts for-ev-er and ev-er and
