Glad Possibilities
Open the gates of righteousness,
And fill me with the blessedness;
As it flows down with so much grace,
From up in the heavenly place.
This is the gate of our Lord,
Who is honored and is adored;
That righteous people enter through,
Knowing the Holy Word is true.
I give thanks for answering me,
Shedding the light so I can see;
The cornerstone of salvation,
In the faith of my foundation.
The Lord is truly my Savior,
Looking down on me with favor;
On everything I have done,
In praising the Father and Son.
As well as the Holy Spirit,
Looking at all I have merit;
Internal cleansing for to bless,
For everything I confess.
So that is why I will rejoice,
Praising the Lord God with my voice;
For this is the day He has made,
And be glad how His Son had paid.
