Death shall not destroy my comfort,
Christ shall guide me thro' the gloom;
Down he'll send some heav'nly convoy,
To escort my spirit home.
(Refrain):
Oh, hallelujah! How I Love my Savior,
Oh, hallelujah! That I Do.
Oh, Hallelujah! How I love my Savior!
Mourners, you may love him too.
Jordan's stream shall not o'erflow me,
While my Savior's by my side;
Canaan, Canaan lies before me!
Soon I'll cross the swelling tide.
(Refrain)
See the happy spirits waiting,
On the banks beyond the stream!
Sweet responses still repeating,
"Jesus! Jesus!" is their theme.
(Refrain)

what a powerful song I love this one!

[@basicaa]

How fair and lovely is the hope which the Lord gave to the dead when he lay down like them beside them. Rise up and come forth and sing praise to him who has raised you from destruction.

[@henboker3]

Sorry for the dumb question. Who wrote the original lyrics?

[@allergic2bulletz875]

I believe it's an original composition by Mack Wilberg. I can't find any other source for it.

[@NinjaHamsters101]

Coro do Tabern may be the original song writer, Mack Wilberg is a music composer who continues to compose traditional songs such as these music pieces.
