Hymnal: Linden Harp #84 (1855) First Line: Little trav'lers, Zionward Refrain First Line: There to welcome Jesus waits Lyrics: 1 Little trav'lers, Zionward,
Each one ent'ring into rest,
In the kingdom of your Lord,
In the mansion of the blest,
Refrain:
There to welcome Jesus waits,
Gives the crowns his follow'rs win;
Lift up your heads, ye golden gates,
And let the children in:
Lift up your heads, ye golden gates,
ye golden gates, ye golden gates:
Lift up your heads, ye golden gates,
and let the children in.
2 Who are they whose little feet,
Pacing life's dark journey through,
Now have reach'd that heavenly seat
They had ever kept in view? [Refrain]
3 "I from Greenland's frozen land;"
"I from India's sultry plain;"
"I from Afric's barren sand;"
"I from islands of the main." [Refrain]
4 "All our earthly journey past,
Every tear and pain gone by,
Here together met at last,
At the portal of the sky!" [Refrain]
5 "Each the welcome 'Come' awaits,
Conqu'rors over death and sin!"--
Lift your heads, ye golden gates,
And let the children in. [Refrain]
