1 Some day when I’ve traveled my last mile here,
The call will be coming for me;
I’ll enter the life boat that will be near
To carry me over the sea.
Chorus
He’ll hold my hand
As over death’s river I go;
Then safe I’ll be
In beautiful heaven I know.
2 My bark shall said safely tho waves dash high,
for Jesus will be at my side;
He’ll still the rough waters when by and by
I’m crossing the river so wide.(Chorus)
3 I’m ready to go to that golden shore
To live there while ages shall roll;
I want to meet mother and saints of yore
In heaven the home of the soul. (Chorus)
