THE EASTERN GATE

I will meet you in the morning,
Just inside the Eastern Gate,
Then be ready, faithful pilgrim,
Lest with you it be too late.

CHORUS
I will meet you, I will meet you
Just Inside the Eastern Gate
over there;
I will meet you, I will meet you,
I will meet you In the morning
over there.

If you hasten off to glory,
Iinger near the eastern Gate,
For I’m coming in the morning,
So you’ll not have long to wait.

Keep your lamps all trimmed and
burning,
For the bridegroom watch and wait,
He’ll be with us at the meeting,
Just inside the Eastern Gate.

Oh the joys of that glad meeting
With the saints who for us wait,
What a blessed, happy meeting,
Just inside the Eastern Gate
