I am trav�ling tow�rd the sunset gate,
I�m a pilgrim going home;
For the glow of eventide I wait,
I�m a pilgrim going home.
Refrain
Evening bells I seem to hear
As the sunset gate draws near!
Evening bells I seem to hear
As the sunset gate draws near!
There is tranquil rest when day is done,
I shall lay me down in peace;
When the end is reached at set of sun,
I shall lay me down in peace.
Refrain
By the side of those most near and dear,
I shall drop life�s toil and care;
When the Master�s tender voice I hear,
I shall drop life�s toil and care.
Refrain
I shall rise again at morning dawn,
I shall put on glory then;
With the shadowy veil of death undrawn,
I shall put on glory then.
Refrain
