| 1. Press on, press on, O pilgrim,
Rejoicing in the Lord;
Believing in His promise,
And trusting in His word;
Fear not! For He is with us,
Whate弾r the cross we bear;
And soon beyond the swelling tide,
We値l gather over there!
Refrain.
Gather over there!
Gather over there!
And soon beyond the swelling tide,
We値l gather over there!
2. Press on, press on, O pilgrim,
Along the heavenly way;
Remember, God commands us
To watch, and work, and pray;
He bids us all be faithful,
And cast on Him our care;
And soon beyond the swelling tide,
We値l gather over there!
Refrain.
Gather over there!
Gather over there!
And soon beyond the swelling tide,
We値l gather over there!
3. Press on, press on, O pilgrim,
Though clouds and storms may rise;
The Light that never faileth
Shines brightly in the skies:
Press on where crowns await us,
In yonder mansions fair;
And soon beyond the swelling tide,
We値l gather over there!
Refrain.
Gather over there!
Gather over there!
And soon beyond the swelling tide,
We値l gather over there!
