The Gates Of Heaven Were Swung Open Wide

Rating: 5.0


He accomplished all He had to do
procuring salvation for me and you.
"It's finished" was His triumphant cry
as He laid down His life for us to die.

The gates of heaven were swung open wide
as He ascended and entered inside.
"Worthy is the Lamb that died, " heaven cried.
"Worthy is the Lamb, " saints on earth replied.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
John 19: 28-30
After this, Jesus, knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the Scripture might be fulfilled, said, "I thirst! " Now a vessel full of sour wine was sitting there; and they filled a sponge with sour wine, put it on hyssop, and put it to His mouth. So when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, "It is finished! " And bowing His head, He gave up His spirit.

Acts 1: 9-11
Now when He had spoken these things, while they watched, He was taken up, and a cloud received Him out of their sight. And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as He went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel, who also said, "Men of Galilee, why do you stand gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven."

Revelation 5: 11-14
Then I looked, and I heard the voice of many angels around the throne, the living creatures, and the elders; and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands, saying with a loud voice:
"Worthy is the Lamb who was slain
To receive power and riches and wisdom,
And strength and honour and glory and blessing! "
And every creature which is in heaven and on the earth and under the earth and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, I heard saying:
"Blessing and honour and glory and power
Be to Him who sits on the throne,
And to the Lamb, forever and ever! "
Then the four living creatures said, "Amen! " And the twenty-four elders fell down and worshipped Him who lives forever and ever.
