Deep in the morrow of sin I was sinking There was no one to guide my way All my life I was in the shadow till I heard the Savior say If you give heed to the blessed promise and become a child of mine When you enter the gates of heaven, you will, shine, shine, shine
Oh, I'm gonna shine like a star in the morning Many mansions will be mine When I enter the gates of heaven I'm gonna shine, Hallelujah, I'm gonna shine
Jesus (o'the) Lord is now my refuge Daily He leads me by the hand He will be my saty and comfort till I reach the glory land So I press along with the hopes eternal springing in this heart of mine When I enter the gates of heaven, I will shine, shine, shine
* Refrain
We were shine, burdened with many affections Ofter unsightly things we hear But we'll all be like our Savior when we reach that home up there Daily I'll walk in His dear footsteps growing more like Him all the time When I enter the gates of heaven, I will shine, shine, shine
