36. The Beautiful Gates of Gold

1 Are you walking the path that is leading
To the homeland of beauties untold?
Are the pastures in which you are feeding,
Near the beautiful gates of gold?

Refrain:
O the beautiful gates of gold,
O the beautiful gates of gold;
Are you walking today in the heavenward way,
To the beautiful gates of gold?

2 Are you walking the path of delusion,
Far away on the mountains so cold;
Or, the broadway of sin and confusion
Far away from the gates of gold? [Refrain]

3 Soon the journey of earth shall be ending,
And the story of life will be told;
Shall your pathway, unerring, be wending
Tow'rd the beautiful gates of gold? [Refrain]

4 Will you come to the Savior for guidance
To this land rich with blessing untold?
He will show you the pathway of radiance
That will lead to the gates of gold. [Refrain]
