Heaven's Gate
When I stand at Heaven's gate,
I hope I haven’t been too late,
To ask forgiveness of my sin,
So God will welcome me right in.
On earth I had a lot of time,
To live a life that was divine.
I heard His Word, but I was lost,
I know that Jesus paid the cost.
People often spoke of Him to me,
But I was blind and could not see.
Oh precious Lord, believe me now,
As I stand at Heaven's gate and bow.
Believe me when I say, I know why
Jesus went to the cruel cross to die.
And now He's beyond Heaven's gate,
I hope dear Lord I’m not too late.
