We’ve Sighted the Golden Gate!

Our hearts are filled with joy to­day;

We’ve sight­ed the gold­en gate!

Its light is beam­ing o’er our way:

We’ve sight­ed the gold­en gate!

Tossed on the sea we’ve sighed for home

O’er oceans wide for this we’ve come

The voy­age now is al­most done

We’ve sight­ed the gold­en gate!

Then sing

sing

O sail­or

sing!

Let joy

joy each heart elate!

The light has come

we’re al­most home

We’ve sighted the gold­en gate!

They’ve sig­naled us from off the land;

We’ve sight­ed the gold­en gate!

Our friends are gath’ring on the strand;

We’ve sight­ed the gold­en gate!

That we of en­trance should not fail

We an­swered to the pi­lot’s hail

With him on board we safe­ly sail:

We’ve sight­ed the gold­en gate!

How light the tri­als that have come:

We’ve sight­ed the gold­en gate!

Forgotten now in sight of home:

We’ve sight­ed the gold­en gate!

The storms and clouds will soon be past

Then shel­tered from the stor­my blast

With sails all furled and an­chor cast:

We’ve sight­ed the gold­en gate!

Our God

with grate­ful hearts to Thee:

We’ve sight­ed the gold­en gate!

Once lost on life’s tem­pes­tu­ous sea:

We’ve sight­ed the gold­en gate!

Our Lord and Sav­ior

soon at home

The grace that saved we’ll glad­ly own;

’Twas all of grace and that alone:

We’ve sight­ed the gold­en gate!
