Lyrics
I've heard them sing again and again
Of a gate that stands ajar,
Of a sunny clime, and golden plain,
And a sinless land afar
But when I have passed the chilly tide,
And enter my home above,
I believe the gate will open wide,
On its golden hinge of love.
A welcome home at the open gate,
From a land of angels bright,
Do these for the ransom'd spirits wait,
As it gains the land of light.
We may not know the joy untold,
The bliss of the other side,
But when I come to the gate of gold,
I believe ‘twill open wide.
The sinner's friend as he reaches down,
With a Saviour's wondrous love,
Who prepares a mansion, robe, and crown,
In his shining courts above,
Will gather his flock into the fold,
To the fold beyond the tide,
As they near the gate, the gate of gold,
I believe ‘twill open wide.
Refrain:
It will open wide, yes open wide;
I'll pass thro' its portals free,
And rest in peace on the other side,
It will open wide for me.
Of a gate that stands ajar,
Of a sunny clime, and golden plain,
And a sinless land afar
But when I have passed the chilly tide,
And enter my home above,
I believe the gate will open wide,
On its golden hinge of love.
A welcome home at the open gate,
From a land of angels bright,
Do these for the ransom'd spirits wait,
As it gains the land of light.
We may not know the joy untold,
The bliss of the other side,
But when I come to the gate of gold,
I believe ‘twill open wide.
The sinner's friend as he reaches down,
With a Saviour's wondrous love,
Who prepares a mansion, robe, and crown,
In his shining courts above,
Will gather his flock into the fold,
To the fold beyond the tide,
As they near the gate, the gate of gold,
I believe ‘twill open wide.
Refrain:
It will open wide, yes open wide;
I'll pass thro' its portals free,
And rest in peace on the other side,
It will open wide for me.
