I am now a child of God, I’ve been washed in Jesus’ blood I am watching and I’m longing while I wait Soon on wings of love I’ll fly, to a home beyond the sky To my welcome, I’ll go sweeping through the gates 
Chorus Sweeping through the gates, Sweeping through the gates In the blood of Calvary’s Lamb, saved from every stain I have... Hallelujah, I’ll go sweeping through the gates 
Oh, the blessed Lord of light, now upholds me by His might And his arms enfold and comfort while I wait I am leaning on His breast, oh the sweetness of this rest Hallelujah, I’ll go sweeping through the gates 
I’ll go sweeping through the gates, where the blessed for me wait Where the weary workers rest forever more When the strife on earth is done, and the crown of life is won Oh the glory of that city just before 
Christ will burst these prison bars, and I’ll soar beyond the stars To my Father’s house, the bright and blessed estate When the morn eternal breaks, and the song immortal wakes Washed in Jesus’ blood, I’ll sweep on through the gates
