Members of the Dix Fork Old Regular Baptist Church sing In That Beautiful That Blessed Forever Sunday morning, 5 July 2015.

Lyrics:

I sometimes think it's too good to be true
When they talk of life's fair river
Of that city so bright, where there is no night
In that beautiful, that blessed forever.

And I sometimes ask when I'm weary and sad,
That the golden gates were nearer,
But I know I can wait for a joy so great
In that beautiful, that blessed forever.

And I sometimes ask, when I think of the end,
Will the Lord on me have pity.
Will He bid me come to His own dear home,
To His own everlasting city.

And I sometimes grieve for the friends I must leave,
For the bond is hard to sever.
But the joy is so sweet, when I know we shall meet,
In that beautiful, that blessed forever.

And I sometimes think of the dear old Saints,
On the banks of Jordan's River,
Who with weary hearts are waiting to depart,
To that beautiful, that blessed forever.

And I sometimes pray on my toilsome way,
For the faith of the true believer,
Whose hopes shine bright, as the stars of the night,
In that beautiful, that blessed forever.

Members of the Dix Fork Old Regular Baptist Church sing When I Shall Cross Over Sunday morning, 5 July 2015.

Lyrics:

When I shall cross over the dark, rolling tide,
Oh, what a glad meeting there'll be!
When close by those beautiful pearly white gates, 
My love ones are waiting for me.

A dear loving mother now waits on the shore,
To clasp me again her breast.
She left this world shouting the praises of God,
By the angels was carried to rest.

Dear father, and mother, and children have gone
To dwell in that country so fair,
And while I still linger on earth's troubled shore
They are watching and waiting up there.

Sometimes I grow weary and want to go home,
But yet all my work is not done;
I'm glad I can labor for Jesus, my Lord,
Till He sounds the glad message, "Come home."

When I Shall Cross Over - Dix Fork Old Regular Baptist Church

Sung by Brother Frankie Stallings. Recorded 5 July 2015 at Dix Fork Old Regular Baptist Church.

Lyrics:

On the other side of Jordan, just beyond the shining strand,
I'll be resting in the beauty of that land,
I'll go walking through the garden with the Man of Galilee,
Who's the Master of the troubled stormy sea.

I am waiting in the shadows for the shining angel band,
They will come and take me home to that land,
On the other side of Jordan.
They are waiting there I know, and I'm ready,
Lord, I'm ready now to go.

On the other side of Jordan, there's so much I want to see,
There's a mansion in that city waiting me.
I'll possess it on that morning when I rise to weep no more,
I'll be living on that everlasting shore.

On the other side of Jordan, there are loved ones waiting me,
Who so often I am longing now to see.
They are waiting for my coming when my race on earth is run,
And the angels carry me across the sea.

I will sit down by the rover, with my loved ones over there,
And there won't be any worry, toils, or care,
And we'll praise our Blessed Savior,
When we reach that happy land, and we always
will be happy over there.

I asked my Aunt Rita, from Red Jacket, West Virginia, to walk me through the process of making her potato candy recipe. We spoke by phone on Tuesday, April 7, 2020 from my home in Charleston to her home in Red Jacket.
