545. Golden harps are sounding

1 Golden harps are sounding,
Angel voices sing,
Pearly gates are opened,
Opened for the King;
Jesus, King of glory,
Jesus, King of love,
Is gone up in triumph,
To His throne above.
All His work is ended,
Joyfully we sing;
Jesus hath ascended!
Glory to our King!

2 He Who came to save us,
He Who bled and died,
Now is crowned with glory
At His Father's side.
Never more to suffer,
Never more to die;
Jesus, King of glory,
Is gone up on high!
All His work is ended,
Joyfully we sing;
Jesus hath ascended!
Glory to our King!

3 Pleading for His children
In that blessed place,
Calling them to glory,
Sending them His grace;
His bright home preparing,
Faithful ones, for you;
Jesus ever liveth
Ever loveth too.
All His work is ended,
Joyfully we sing;
Jesus hath ascended!
Glory to our King!

Amen.
