I'll meet you in the morning by the bright riverside
When all sorrow has drifted away
I'll be standing at the portals when the gates open wide
At the end of life's long dreary day.

I'll meet you in the morning with a how do you do
And we'll sit down by the river
And when all the rapture old aquaintance renewed
You'll know me in the morning by the smile that I wear
When I meet you in the morning
In the city that is built four square.

I'll meet you in the morning at the end of the way
On the streets of that city of gold
Where we all can be together and be happy once more
While the years and the ages shall roll.

I'll meet you in the morning with a how do you do
And we'll sit down by the river
And when all the rapture old aquaintance renewed
You'll know me in the morning by the smile that I wear
When I meet you in the morning
In the city that is built four square...
