<p>Through the gates of pearl and jasper<br>
To the city paved with gold,<br>
When the ransomed host shall enter,<br>
And their gracious Lord behold.<br>
When they meet in blissful triumph<br>
By the tree of life so fair<br>
Shall we join the noble army,<br>
And receive a welcome there?</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p class="refrain">By the grace of God we&#8217;ll meet<br>
In the city&#8217;s golden street<br>
Shouting, glory! hallelujah!<br>
At the dear Redeemer&#8217;s feet.</p>
<p>When the harvest work is ended,<br>
And the summer days are past,<br>
When the reapers go rejoicing<br>
To their bright reward at last;<br>
When the white robed angel leads them<br>
To the gates of joy so fair,<br>
Shall we join their happy number?<br>
Will they bid us welcome there?</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p>Let us follow on with firmness,<br>
Keeping ever in the way<br>
Where our bless&egrave;d Lord has taught us,<br>
To be faithful, watch and pray;<br>
Then, in garments pure and spotless,<br>
By the tree of life so fair,<br>
We shall sing through endless ages<br>
With the countless millions there.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
