[G#m] [D] [B] I'm sorry, but would you like to
[A] [B]
[G#m] [D#] [E] [B]
Standing, I'm standing by the river
I'm facing across the lake in [F#] my way
[B]
Standing, I'm standing [E] by the river
[B]
Trying to get [C#] it to us [F#] over on [B] the other [E] side, [B] other side
Standing on the banks of the river
Looking beyond, looking beyond
Standing on the banks of the river
[F#] Looking for a home, looking for a home
[B]
Just to get a [F#m] glimpse of my Jesus
[E] In that home up [B] there on high
[G#] Looking for the [C#] light of my [F#] Savior [B] up in the [E] sky, [B] up in the sky
Standing, I'm standing by the river
Even when [B] I am scared, I'm a-keeping [F#] up
Standing, I'm standing [B]
[E] by the river
[F] [B] Trying to get it [G#m] to us [F#] over on the [B] other [E] side, [B] other side
Standing there waiting for the boatman, ready to go, ready to go
Standing there waiting for the boatman, [F#] on the left [E] shore, on the left [D#m] shore
[B] When I see the [F#m] light of that city [E] and people, my [F] Savior there
[B] Then I'll know [G#m] forever I'm [F#] in my [B] Savior's care
[A] [B] I was standing on the [F#m] banks when I saw that [E] old ship carry my [B] mama home
I was standing on the banks when daddy [F#] crossed the river and left me all alone
Now [B] I'm standing on the [F#m] banks just waiting for my [E] ride to heaven's [F] golden shore
And [B] I'm trying to get a glimpse [C#] of what's over [F#] on the [B] other side, other side
Standing, I'm standing by the river
Even when I am scared, I'm a-keeping up
[F#] Standing, [B]
I'm standing [E] by the [F] river
[B] Trying [G#] to get a glimpse [C#] of what's [F#] over on the [B] other [E] side, other [B] side
Trying to get a glimpse of what's over on the other
Trying to get a glimpse of what's over on the other [E] [B] Side
Standing [E]
by the river, deep and wide
I'm gazing at the cross, the [B] raging tide
[E] I'm standing, I'm standing by [A] the river
[E] [C#m] Trying [F#m] to get a glimpse of what's over on the other [E] side, other side
Standing, I'm standing by the river, deep and wide
I'm gazing at the cross, [B] the raging tide
[E] I'm standing, I'm standing by [A] the river
[A#] Trying [E] to [C#] get a glimpse of [F#] what's over [B] on the other
[E] Trying to [F] get a glimpse of [F#] what's over [B] on the other
