Eastern Gate, The (also known as I Will Meet You In The Morning)

I will meet you in the morning,

Just inside the Eastern Gate.

Then be ready, faithful pilgrim,

Lest with you it be too late.

Refrain

I will meet you, I will meet you

Just inside the Eastern Gate over there.

I will meet you, I will meet you,

I will meet you in the morning over there.

If you hasten off to glory,

Linger near the Eastern Gate,

For I'm coming in the morning;

So you'll not have long to wait.

Refrain

Keep your lamps all trimmed and burning;

For the Bridegroom watch and wait.

He'll be with us at the meeting

Just inside the Eastern Gate.

Refrain

O the joys of that glad meeting

With the saints who for us wait!

What a blessèd, happy meeting

Just inside the Eastern Gate!

Refrain
