—Bill Monroe
Deep in the morrow of sin I was sinking
There was no one to guide my way
All my life I was overshadowed 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
Chorus:
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 the Lord is now my refuge
Daily He leads me by the hand
He will be my steady 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
We were burdened with many afflictions
Often 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
Verse and Chorus:
