Chorus
Beyond the gates beyond the sunset
New life immortal for us waits
We'll be at home on life's fair morning
Beyond the gates beyond the gates
Verse 1
Beyond the gates of life so fleeting
There is for us a better home
A place where peace shall reign forever
And sighs and tears shall never come
Verse 2
Beyond the gates beyond all sorrow
Beyond the cares of earth's vain store
We'll have new joy beyond expression
Glad praise we'll sing on heaven's shore
Verse 3
Beyond the gates of all sad partings
Where grief and pain our hearts make sore
We'll meet again our own dear loved ones
And see their welcome smiles once more
Verse 4
Beyond the gates in Jesus' likeness
Forevermore we shall live on
I want to meet you Christian brother
I'll look for you when morn shall dawn
