Sheet music
- 1Golden harps are sounding,Angel voices sing,Pearly gates are opened,Opened for the King;Jesus, King of glory,Jesus, King of love,Is gone up in triumphTo His throne above.
- 2He Who came to save us,He Who bled and died,Now is crowned with gloryAt His Father’s side.Nevermore to suffer,Nevermore to die;Jesus, King of glory,Is gone upon high!
- 3Pleading for His childrenIn that blessed place,Calling them to glory,Sending them His grace;His bright home preparing,Faithful ones, for you;Jesus ever livethEver loveth too.Amen.
