C1
Verse 1
The golden gates are lifted up,
The doors are opened wide,
The King of Glory is gone in
Unto His Father’s side.
Verse 2
Thou art gone up before us, Lord,
To make for us a place,
That we may be where now Thou art,
And look upon Thy face.
Verse 3
And ever on our earthly path
A gleam of glory lies,
A light still breaks behind the cloud
That veiled Thee from our eyes.
Verse 4
Lift up our hearts, lift up our minds:
Let Thy dear grace be given,
That while we wander here below,
Our treasure be in heaven;
Verse 5
That where Thou art, at God’s right hand,
Our hope, our love may be:
Dwell Thou in us, that we may dwell
For evermore in Thee.
