When I Reach the Gates of Glory

Author: C. Bentley Hymnal: Songs of Love and Praise No. 4 #80 (1897) First Line: When I leave this land of sorrow Refrain First Line: When I reach the gates of glory, by and by Lyrics: 1 When I leave this land of sorrow And go over there to rest, Many hearts will be found watching, And the ones I love the best; And the joys will be continued In that heav’nly place so fair, When I reach the gates of glory, by and by. Refrain: When I reach the gates of glory, by and by, When I reach the gates of glory, by and by. And the joys will be continued In that heav’nly place so fair, When I reach the gates of glory, by and by. 2 In that place where come no changes, Our beloved we shall meet, Clad in garments pure and spotless, Sitting at the Saviour’s feet; There no sorrow or affliction, Pain nor death can ever come, When I reach the gates of glory, by and by. [Refrain] 3 Let us all look up to heaven, And be earnest in the way, Cast our care upon the Saviour, He will guide us day by day; There will be no separation In that heav’nly place so fair,– When we reach the gates of glory, by and by. [Refrain] Tune Title: [When I leave this land of sorrow]
