Swing Open The Beautiful Gates

Author: David R. Piper Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9137 First Line: Swing open thy gates, O Jerusalem Refrain First Line: Swing open the beautiful gates of Heav’n Lyrics: 1 Swing open thy gates, O Jerusalem, For our Savior’s blood has been shed! The promise lies yet in the future years, When we all shall rise from the dead! Refrain: Swing open the beautiful gates of Heav’n, The gates by the crystal sea! Swing open the beautiful gates of Heav’n! Swing open the gates for me! 2 Swing open the gates of the pearly hue, The Savior is waiting within, To welcome the homecoming throng of earth, Who have been redeemed from all sin! [Refrain] 3 Swing open thy gates, city beautiful, With thy wondrous pavements of gold! The loved ones thou hast With their foreheads crowned, And their forms we long to behold. [Refrain] 4 Swing open thy gates, O Jerusalem, For the Savior’s blood has been shed! The promise lies yet in the future years, When we all shall rise from the dead! [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Swing open thy gates, O Jerusalem]
