The Eastern Gate Isaiah G. Martin I will meet you in the morning, Just inside the Eastern Gate; Then be ready, faithful pilgrim, Lest with you it be too late. I will meet you, I will meet you Just inside the Eastern Gate over there; I will meet you, I will meet you, I will meet you in the morning over there. If 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. Keep 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. Oh, the joys of that glad meeting With the saints who for us wait! What a blessed, happy meeting Just inside the Eastern Gate!
