He The Pearly Gates Will Open Lyrics & Chords

By Frederick A. Blom

Verse 1

(D)Love di(G)vine, so (D)great and wondrous, 

(G)Deep and (D)mighty, pure, (Em)sublime, 

(D)Coming from the heart (G)of Jesus. 

Just (D)the same through (A)tests of (D)time!



Chorus

(A)He the pearly gates will (D)open, 

(G) So that (D)I may enter (A)in; 

(D)For He purchased my (G)redemption 

And for(D)gave me (A)all my (D)sin.



Verse 2

Like a dove when hunted, frightened. 

As a wounded fawn was I; 

Brokenhearted, yet He healed me. 

He will heed the sinner's cry. 



Chorus

He the pearly gates will open, 

So that I may enter in; 

For He purchased my redemption 

And forgave me all my sin.



Verse 3

Love divine, so great and wondrous, 

All my sins He then forgave; 

I will sing His praise forever, 

For His blood, His power to save. 



Verse 4

In life's eventide at twilight, 

At His door I'll knock and wait; 

By the precious love of Jesus, 

I shall enter heaven's gate.
