The Golden Gates Are Lifted Up

The gold­en gates are lift­ed up

The doors are op­ened wide;

The King of Glo­ry is gone in

Unto His Fa­ther’s side.

Thou art gone up be­fore us

Lord

To make for us a place

That we may be where now Thou art

And look up­on God’s face.

And ev­er on our earth­ly path

A gleam of glo­ry lies

A light still breaks be­hind the cloud

That veiled Thee from our eyes.

Lift up our hearts

lift up our minds:

Let Thy dear grace be giv’n;

That

while we wan­der here be­low

Our trea­sure be in Heav’n.

That where Thou art

at God’s right hand

Our hope

our love

may be:

Dwell Thou in us

that we may dwell

Forevermore in Thee.
