When They Ring Those Golden Bells Lyrics - Carl Smith

There's a land beyond the river that we call the sweet forever 

And we only reach at shore by fate's decree 

One by one we'll gain the portals there to dwell with the immortals 

When they ring those golden bells for you and me 

Don't you hear the bells now ringing can't you hear the angels singing 

This glory hallelujah jubilee 

In that far off sweet forever just beyond the shining river 

When they ring the golden bells for you and me 

[ steel ] 

When our days shall know the number when in death we'll sweetly slumber 

When the king commands the spirit to be free 

Never more with anguish laden we shall reach at lovely aden 

When they ring those golden bells for you and me 

Don't you hear the bells now ringing...
