He the Pearly Gates Will Open
1 Love divine, so great and wondrous, Deep and mighty, pure, sublime, Coming from the heart of Jesus. Just the same thro' tests of time! Refrain: He the pearly gates will open, So that I may enter in; For He purchased my redemption And forgave me all my sin. 2 Like a dove when hunted, frightened, As a wounded fawn was I; Broken-hearted, yet He healed me. He will heed the sinner's cry. [Refrain] 3 Love divine, so great and wondrous! All my sins He then forgave; I will sing His praise forever, For His blood, His pow'r to save. [Refrain] 4 In life's even-tide, at twilight, At His door I'll knock and wait; By the precious love of Jesus, I shall enter heaven's gate. [Refrain]
