To the spring-embosomed shore,
Where the sweet light smileth ever,
And the sun goes down no more;
O wondrous, wondrous shore !
Dropping down the winding river,
To the wide and welcome sea,
Dropping down the narrow river,
Man's wayward, weary river, .
To the blue and ample sea,
Where the tempest wrecketh never,
And the sky is fair and free;
O joyous, joyous sea!

Dropping down the noisy river,

To our peaceful, peaceful home,
Dropping down the turbid river,
Earth's bustling, crowded river,
To our gentle, gentle home,
Where the rough roar riseth never,
And the vexings cannot come;
O loved and long'd-for home!

Dropping down the eddying river,
With a helmsman true and tried;
Dropping down the perilous river,
Mortality's dull river,

With a sure and heavenly guide,
Even Him who, to deliver

My soul from death, hath died;
O helmsman true and tried !

Dropping down the rapid river,
To the dear and deathless land;
Dropping down the well-known river,
Life's swollen and rushing river,
To the resurrection-land,
Where the living live for ever,

And the dead have join'd the band;
O fair and blessed land!
