Down by the River.

Oh, we'll wait till Jesus comes
  Down by the river,
We'll wait till Jesus comes
  Down by the river side.

1. Oh, hallelujah to the Lamb,
     Down by the river;
   The Lord is on the giving hand,
     Down by the river side.

2. Oh, we are pilgrims here below,
     Down by the river;
   Oh, soon to glory we will go,
     Down by the river side.

3. Oh, little did I think that He was so nigh,
     Down by the river;
   He spake, and made me laugh and cry,
     Down by the river side.
