The Gates Of Heaven
~Marge Tindal~ 1999

As the gates of Heaven
swing open wide ...
I'm praying that I
will be invited inside.

For on this earth
I've lived a life,
I believe worthy
of the after-life.

Did I do what He asked?
Did I do my part?
Did I worship Him
with every beat of my heart?

To the Ten Commandments
I did, devoted, cling.
When God opens Heaven's gates wide,
will my voice be heard to sing?

How Great Thou Art, my Master.
How fervent is my prayer?
When God opens Heaven's gates,
will He find me there?
