He Locked the Gates

One day I heard a preacher preach He said this world you're gonna leave And when we die we'll either go To heav'n above or hell below I bowed my heart confessed my sin Invited Jesus to come in The savior turned me from the flames And with a word he locked the gates He locked the gates of hell behind me And then he threw the keys away He locked the gates, o give him glory There'll never come a day I'll have to enter such a place For the day that I got saved He locked the gates Now I live a life so free Knowing Jesus lives in me And when I fail I plead the blood Alive and well it's still enough Then when the devil comes my way And says in hell for sin I'll pay I point him to that rugged hill And say thanks to Jesus I never will He locked the gates of hell behind me And then he threw the keys away He locked the gates, o give him glory There'll never come a day I'll have to enter such a place For the day that I got saved He locked the gates He locked the gates of hell behind me And then he threw the the keys away He locked the gates, o give him glory There'll never come a day I'll have to enter such a place For the day that I got saved He came that very day He locked the gates He locked the gates
