« Prev I must cross a mighty river Next »

Dr. Phillips (Newaddlwyd)

The River of Death--a favourite picture of every Welsh hymn-writer--is the theme of the next verse:

I must cross a mighty river,

Deep between two worlds it flows;

And the sounding of its waters

Are these many earthly woes:

In its waves in sorest anguish

I shall very soon be found--

Oh! for Christ as my foundation!

Then my feet shall touch the ground.
