There is a gate where angels wait - Hymn with Lyrics

1. There is a gate where angels wait,
And through it we'll go thronging
In rapture when Christ comes again
For us to Him belonging.
Oh, heavenly home, Oh joy restored!
Oh, beauty, glory Grace outpoured!
Eternity With Jesus Christ our Lord!

2. When we ascend where troubles end
Death dead; life's waters flowing!
With Christ we'll be eternally,
In peace beyond all knowing.
Oh, heavenly home, Oh joy restored!
Oh, beauty, glory Grace outpoured!
Eternity With Jesus Christ our Lord!

3. No need for light of moon by night,
Nor sun nor lamp in heaven.
A radiance there than stars more fair
To all the blest is given.
Oh, heavenly home, Oh joy restored!
Oh, beauty, glory Grace outpoured!
Eternity With Jesus Christ our Lord!

4. No temples raise such lovely praise
As heaven's anthems number,
Where harp and voice as one rejoice,
And praises never slumber.
Oh, heavenly home, Oh joy restored!
Oh, beauty, glory Grace outpoured!
Eternity With Jesus Christ our Lord!

5. There every race from every place
Shall join the angels glorious,
And voices raise in endless praise,
Unto the Lamb victorious!
Oh, heavenly home, Oh joy restored!
Oh, beauty, glory Grace outpoured!
Eternity With Jesus Christ our Lord!

It looks like you might be referring to a lesser-known hymn, but I couldn't find a widely recognized hymn titled "There is a gate where angels wait." However, the phrase suggests themes of heaven’s gates, divine presence, and angelic watchfulness, which are common in Christian hymnody.

Could you be referring to "There Is a Gate That Stands Ajar"? This hymn was written by Lydia Odell Baxter (1809–1874), a well-known American hymn writer. If this is the hymn you're looking for, here’s its background:
