Author: Henrietta E. Blair Hymnal: Melodious Sonnets #41 (1885) First Line: At the gate that leads to glory, from the rugged path of sin Refrain First Line: Strait is the gate and narrow is the way Lyrics: 1 At the gate that leads to glory, from the rugged path of sin,
Where the joys that fill the soul are ever new,
O ye weary, heavy-laden, will you strive to enter in,
While the Saviour now is waiting there for you?
Refrain:
Strait is the gate and narrow is the way
That leadeth unto life above;
Strive to enter in, oh, strive to enter in!
Come to a Saviour’s love.
2 At the gate that leads to glory there’s a light that shineth still,
‘Tis the pure and holy light of promise true;
Hear the blessed invitation to the whosoever will,
From the Saviour who is waiting now for you. [Refrain]
3 At the gate that leads to glory you will never knock in vain,
There is room for ev’ry one, and welcome, too;
Only give your heart to Jesus, life eternal you will gain:
He is calling, he is waiting now for you. [Refrain]
4 From the gate that leads to glory, oh, how many go astray!
We are told that they that find it are but few;
Then believe the words of Jesus, enter quickly while you may:
He is waiting now with open arms for you. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [At the gate that leads to glory, from the rugged path of sin]
