Tchalal telthlemelth `kup lay ta stawlo,

Skaka ta ay-e mestayokh lay ta stawlo,
Lay ta tchee-tchilth ay-e tumokh.

Tchalal telthlemelth tus ta ay-e stawlo,
Tchalal lay hi ta sawlth see-ize;

Hayluk lay ta ay-e tumokh.

ENGLISH
1 Shall we gather at the river,
Where bright angel-feet have trod;
With its crystal tide forever
Flowing by the throne of God.
Yes, we'll gather at the river,
The beautiful, the beautiful river!
Gather with the saints at the river,
That flows by the throne of God.
2 Soon we'll reach the silver river,
Soon our pilgrimage will cease;
Soon our happy hearts will quiver
With the melody of peace.
20
HERE WE SUFFER GRIEF AND PAIN.

Nearer, my God, to thee,
Nearer to thee;
E'en though it be a cross
That raiseth me;
Still all my song shall be,
Nearer, my God, to thee,
Nearer to thee.
