131. The Golden Gate

1 Just across the jasper sea,
Many loved ones watch and wait;
Sweet the greeting there will be,
When I meet them at the golden gate.

Refrain:
Golden gate, golden gate,
Many loved ones watch and wait,
Golden gate, golden gate,
When I meet them at the golden gate.

2 When across the cold, cold wave,
I beside the loved ones stand;
WE will sing his power to save,
All who live to keep his blest commands. [Refrain]

3 Joy will fill each soul that day,
And our love to him be great;
Who hath washed our sins away,
And hath opened wide the golden gate. [Refrain]
