Through the gates of pearl and jasper To the city paved with gold, When the ransomed host shall enter, And their gracious Lord behold. When they meet in blissful triumph By the tree of life so fair Shall we join the noble army, And receive a welcome there? Refrain By the grace of God we???ll meet In the city???s golden street Shouting, glory! hallelujah! At the dear Redeemer???s feet. When the harvest work is ended, And the summer days are past, When the reapers go rejoicing To their bright reward at last; When the white robed angel leads them To the gates of joy so fair, Shall we join their happy number? Will they bid us welcome there? Refrain Let us follow on with firmness, Keeping ever in the way Where our bless??d Lord has taught us, To be faithful, watch and pray; Then, in garments pure and spotless, By the tree of life so fair, We shall sing through endless ages With the countless millions there. Refrain
