Just inside the pearl gate,

I shall go when my dear Father wills,
Then what joy there will be,
When each other we see

For the Lamb is the light,-
All the land with his glory he fills;
Soon he'll call me to come,
And with him rest at home
On the beautiful, beautiful hills.

The precious blood avails for me. And to my heart the answer came: stay, Where all my guilt is wash'd away.

CHORUS.

To save me from sin the Saviour died, And now I am justified.
