I will meet you in the morning,
Just inside the Eastern Gate,
Then be ready, faithful pilgrim,
Lest with you it be too late
(Chorus)
I will me
et you in the morning,
I will meet you in the morning,
Just inside the Eastern Gate over there;
I will meet you in the morning,
I will meet you in the morning,
I will meet you in the morning, over there;
(Verse)
I
f you hasten off to glory,
Linger near the Eastern Gate,
For I’m coming in the morning,
So you’ll not have long to wait
(Chorus)
I will me
et you in the morning,
I will meet you in the morning,
Just inside the Eastern Gate over there;
I will meet you in the morning,
I will meet you in the morning,
I will meet you in the morning, over there;
(Verse)
Ke
ep your lamps all trimmed and burning,
For the Bridegroom watch and wait,
He’ll be with us at the meeting,
Just inside the Eastern Gate
(Chorus)
I will me
et you in the morning,
I will meet you in the morning,
Just inside the Eastern Gate over there;
I will meet you in the morning,
I will meet you in the morning,
I will meet you in the morning, over there;
(Verse)
O the joys of that glad meeting
With the saints who for us wait,
What a blessed, happy meeting,
Just inside the Eastern Gate
