the Gate Keeper – v3

Christ was clear
on who He was,
who He is, fulfilling the word
the path, the light
the way, the Shepherd
the gate, the gate keeper
so is the Christ
the way, the truth
the journey, the path
the way, the Shepherd
that leads to life
the gate, the gate keeper
to the pasture, to heaven,
the courts of God
at the end of this life
the way, the journey
ever forward, onward
to the other shore
beyond the gate
into paradise
