In new heaven and new earth
|
|
| 1. | In new heaven and new earth |
| | New Jerusalem lies; |
| | Out of God it has its birth, |
| | With God's radiance thrice. |
| | Lo, God's image it doth bear, |
| | And God's glory it doth share! |
| | And the Lord Himself is there |
| | In that city of God. |
| 2. | All the gates are pearls assigned |
| | In the city of gold, |
| | And the street is gold refined |
| | With foundations twelvefold. |
| 3. | There life's crystal river flows |
| | With abundant supplies, |
| | And the tree of life there grows |
| | And all need satisfies. |
| 4. | God is there the great I AM |
| | In that city of light; |
| | God's the light within the Lamb, |
| | And there never is night. |
