At Heavens Gate

At heavens gate

I will await

The future being so vast

But not forgetting the past

For it was through trial

And life that was vile

That I saw victory

Through God's mercy

For he enlightened my path

Showed grace instead of wrath

Guiding my youthful soul

Keeping my spirit whole

And despite my mistakes

The failures and bad breaks

He kept encouraging me still

To stay within his will

I may not have much in heaven

I may only inherit leaven

But this I know at which I'll gasp

I'll have my Jesus in my grasp.
