OPEN WIDE.

Open wide, Eternal Gate, For the saints before thee wait; They have suffered much from sin, Open wide and let them in.
Open wide, O Heavenly Door, Unto the oppressed and poor; For the mighty Prince of Peace Bids their weary thralldom cease.
Stand ajar! O, stand ajar, These have traveled from afar, To appear at the assize, And receive the glorious prize.
Open high! O, open high; Let them view a fairer sky; Let them see the angel-kin, Who are shouting now within.
Open high and open wide! Let them pass to Jesus' side; Past all work and waiting, blest In His endless happy rest.
