Right
Have we the right of passage from this life to realms above
Have we the right to tread upon those streets He paved in love
With gold as clear as crystal with its own transparency
Allowing twelve foundations for the saints of God to see
Have we the right to enter in those righteous courts up there
Where every precious soul of His has sent their earnest prayer
In deepest supplication for forgiveness from God's throne
To mold and fashion what they are to be His perfect own
And have we right to ask Him Who once laid His robes aside
Who came here as a baby lived and for transgression died
That was not His but was our own that He did not deserve
If He will hold a place for us close by Him in reserve
Where we can taste the goodness of the greatness that is His
Upon His throne in heaven where we'll know eternal bliss
Where all who once were guilty of the murder of God's Son
Who live in His forgiveness and be counted all as one
One body of believers who have far more than they know
Who have His Spirit's presence with them everywhere they go
Awaiting for their asking to make them as one again
With Christ our loving Saviour Who by grace removes all sin
That bars us from our passage to that City built foursquare
Where all is love and joyfulness for people living there
As they will have learned long before to be as one with God
Through fellowship together while upon this earth they trod
As pilgrims truly seeking to be more and more like Him
Who heard their prayers in heaven where He watched each one of them
And daily sent His angels to be there right by their side
Influenced by His Spirit in the way that they should guide
Their feet along that narrow path that led them straight to Him
Where He's prepared a special place to be as one with them
That place He calls their mansions soon to meet their weary eyes
With glories they have never known when from the grave they rise
And by the grace God's given them they lay hold on that throne
Beside the Son Who's seated there Who's called them as His own
And by the right He's given them they reign as priests and kings
Who lived by faith assured by love His blood bought everything
Revelation 21:10-27; John 14:1-4
