I Am Near the Gate

Stormy waters in this life come rage around me every day

But I am near the gate

No evil fate can come and tempt me off the straight and narrow way

For I am near the gate

I'm near the gate that leads to glory

That narrow way I'm passing through

A band of angels stand to greet me

I am near the gate

One day this ever changing life will change forever for us all

I am near the gate

Each of us will choose the path we're on the day that he will call

I am near the gate

When my body lies before the multitude to gather round

I am near the gate

I'll be going to a place where angels gather all around

I am near the gate
