The Sunset Gate



Hymns - The Sunset Gate - Текст песни

I am trav'ling tow'rd the sunset gate,
I'm a pilgrim going home;
For the glow of eventide I wait,
I'm a pilgrim going home.

Refrain

Evening bells I seem to hear
As the sunset gate draws near!
Evening bells I seem to hear
As the sunset gate draws near!

There is tranquil rest when day is done,
I shall lay me down in peace;
When the end is reached at set of sun,
I shall lay me down in peace.

Refrain

By the side of those most near and dear,
I shall drop life's toil and care;
When the Master's tender voice I hear,
I shall drop life's toil and care.

Refrain

I shall rise again at morning dawn,
I shall put on glory then;
With the shadowy veil of death undrawn,
I shall put on glory then.

Refrain
