"Wide, ye heavenly gates, unfold,
Closed no more by death and sin
Lo I the conquering Lord behold!
Let the King of glory in."
Hark th' angelic host inquire,
"Who is he, th' almighty King?"
Hark again, the answering choir
Thus in strains of triumph sing:
"He whose powerful arm alone
On his foes destruction hurled;
He who hath the victory won,
He who saved a ruined world;
He who God's pure law fulfilled,
Jesus, the incarnate Word;
He whose truth with blood was sealed;
He is heaven's all-glorious Lord."
"Who shall to this blest abode
Follow in the Saviour's train?"
"They who in his cleansing blood
Wash away each guilty stain:
They whose daily actions prove
Steadfast faith and holy fear,
Fervent zeal and grateful love ;-
They shall dwell for ever here."
