Gates Ajar (also known as What Music Celestial, What Melody Clear)

What music celestial, what melody clear

Is this which is greeting with rapture my ear?

Refrain

The gates are ajar in the mansions on high

And angels are chanting their songs in the sky.

Is Heaven so near me, the hope of my soul,

That over my spirit its music may roll?

Refrain

Oh, bliss without measure, immortal and sweet!

I would that such cadence my voice could repeat!

Refrain
