I Firmly Promise You

Someday our last good-bye's on earth will all be over
And the journey of life will be through
But before we say good-by and the chain of life is broken
Will you make me this promise too

I firmly promise you that I'll meet you by the river
On the banks of that evergreen shore
Where hearts will never break and our lips will never quiver
for the friends that have gone on before
One by one we watch them cross the silent river
They are leaving every moment or two
So won't you firmly promise me that you'll meet me by the river
And I'll make you this promise too

Now we know that death is sure and life is so uncertain
And we know not when the moment will end
Er' the silent reaper comes to drap the final curtain
Let me make you this promise too

I firmly promise you that I'll meet you by the river
On the banks of that evergreen shore
Where hearts will never break and our lips will never quiver
for the friends that have gone on before
One by one we watch them cross the silent river
They are leaving every moment or two
So won't you firmly promise me that you'll meet me by the river
And I'll make you this promise too

The prettiest flowers will be blooming

verse 1
I know there is a land of beautiful flowers,
Where we will meet again when life is o'er;
Where we will while away the endless hours
on heaven's bright eternal shore

verse 2
On heaven's golden strand there'll be no more dying,
No chilling winds or tempest e'er will blow;
It is a land of love and wondrous beauty
Where fragrant flowers ever grow.

verse 3
I want to meet you by that beautiful river
On that eternal morning in the sky;
Where we will live in peace thru endless ages,
Where we will never say goodby.

Chorus:

The prettiest beds of flowers there will bloom
by the prettiest street our eyes shall e'er behold,
Where the beautiful tree of life for us is waiting
By the prettiest mansions made of purest gold,
The prettiest robes and crowns we'll all be wearing
In that city four-square beyond this world of strife
And the prettiest songs with the angels we'll be singing
On that beautiful morning by the river of life.
