Along the River of Time

Verse 1

Along the River of Time we glide,
Along the River, along the River,
The swiftly flowing, resistless tide,
The swiftly flowing, the swiftly flowing.

Chorus

And soon, ah, soon, we’ll see,
Yes, soon ’twill come and we will be
Floating, floating,
Out on the sea of eternity!

Verse 2

Along the River of Time we glide,
Along the River, along the River,
A thousand dangers its currents hide,
A thousand dangers, a thousand dangers,
And near our course the rocks we see,
Oh dreadful thought! a wreck to be

Verse 3

Along the River of Time we glide,
Along the River, along the River,
Our Saviour only our bark can guide,
But with Him we secure may be,
No fear, no doubt, but joy to be
