Closer to the Gates
Words & Music: E. Pettersen
I used to think that I was somethin’
Till life put me in my place
But now I realize my future would mean nothing
If not for God’s amazing grace
CHORUS:
I’m getting closer to the gates
With every step I take I can hardly wait
To see His face, in that place
Full of mercy, peace and grace
Oh, I can’t wait…. Till I get to the gates
Till I get to the gates…
It’s been a rocky path I’m walkin’
Through this broken world of sin
But my eyes are focused straight ahead to where I’m goin’
I never turn around to look at where I’ve been…
CHORUS:
I’m getting closer to the gates
With every step I take I can hardly wait
To see His face, in that place
Full of mercy, peace and grace
Oh, I can’t wait…. Till I get to the gates
Till I get to the gates…
BRIDGE:
I know that Heaven’s out there waiting
For the Bible tells me so…
And I spend my days anticipating
The hour when I will finally go!
CHORUS:
I’m getting closer to the gates
With every step I take I can hardly wait
To see His face, in that place
Full of mercy, peace and grace
Oh, I can’t wait…. Till I get to the gates
Till I get to the gates…
Till I get to the gates…
