Chorus:

Oh city eternal
Swing your gates open wide
Angels sing me a welcome
When I reach the other side
And glory of Jesus
Shine all over me
Oh city eternal
Where the soul is made free

Away in God's heaven
Where sin is forbidden
Some day His love will lift the veil
Jordan will be tossing
But I will make the crossing
For the promises of God
Can never fail

(Repeat Chorus)

Oh I'm just a pilgrim
On earth where I'm living
Trouble is camping at my door
But I've made my decision
And my soul has a vision
Of a mansion over
On the other shore

(Repeat Chorus)

Yes, soon will be coming
The robing and crowning
As I slip away to gloryland
My home will be lasting
And friend at my passing
I will shake the Master's
Nail-scarred hand

(Repeat Chorus)
