Throw Open the Gates

Throw open the gates of the city, The city of crystal and gold, That all who accept of the Savior May enter with joy to the fold.

Chorus

Throw open the gates of the city, That its light may shine out on the way; Throw open the gates of the city, We are nearing its portals today.

Verse 2

Throw open the gates of the city, The city of joy and of love, That its light may shine out on the pathway That leads to bright mansions above.

Verse 3

Throw open the gates of the city, Let it’s glory shine out like a star, That the millions who know not the Savior May hasten from near and afar.
