1 Straight is the gate and narrow the way,
That leads unto life eternal;
Christ is the way to the realms of day,
Where all is bright and vernal.

Chorus:
Come, dear sinner, mercy is free,
That gate stands open wide for thee;
For thee, for thee,
Stands open wide for thee.

2 Through the wide world he sends the glad call,
To every tribe and nation;
There's pardon, peace, and there's life for all,
Who seek thro' him salvation. [Chorus]

3 Straight is the gate and narrow the way,
But let us press on united;
Come, you may enter the gates of day,
For every soul's invited. [Chorus]
