HEAVEN is a holy place,
Filled with glory and with grace,
Sin can never enter there;
All within its gate are pure
From defilement kept secure,
Sin can never enter there.
Sin can never enter there;
Sin can never enter there;
So, if at the Judgment bar,
Sinful spots your soul shall mar,
You can never enter there.
If you want to dwell at last,
When your life on earth is past,
In that home so bright and fair,
You must here be cleans’d from sin,
Have the Life of Christ within,
Sin can never enter there.
You may live in sin below,
Heaven’s grace refuse to know,
But you can not enter there;
It will stop you at the door,
Bar you out forever more,
Sin can never enter there.
If you cling to sin till death,
When you draw your latest breath,
You will sink in dark despair,
To the region of the lost,
Thus to prove at awful cost,
Sin can never enter there
