Tune: Lasst Uns Erfreuen
(\'All creatures of our God and King\')
Revelation 21 v.4 and v.21-27
********
The new Jerusalem, city
Each of twelve gates a pearl it be
O praise Him, Alleluia!
The street of city is pure gold
As transparent glass it shines bold
O praise Him O praise Him
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia!
In that city no Temple be
The Lord and Lamb that Temple, see
O praise Him, Alleluia!
The Lord God Almighty is He
And Jesus Christ is the Lamb, see
O praise Him, O praise Him
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia!
The city had no need of sun
Neither of moon, not even one
O praise Him, Alleluia!
They shine not there, for God\'s glory
Does lighten it resplendently
O praise Him, O praise Him
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia!
The Lamb, Jesus, is city\'s light
He does illuminate our sight
O praise Him, Alleluia!
The saved nations shall walk therein
But nothing there of evil, sin
O praise Him, O praise Him
Alleluia, alleluia, Alleluia!
The gates shall not be shut at all
For there the night does never fall
O praise Him, Alleluia!
Nothing of darkness, lies, or sin
Shall ever enter it within
O praise Him, O praise Him
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia!
They who written in the Lamb\'s book
Of life, they have not Him forsook
O praise Him, Alleluia!
They enter in, no more death, pain
Sorrow, crying, ne\'er named again
O praise Him, O praise Him
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia!
They shall bring the glory, honour
Of the nations, and them confer
O praise Him, Alleluia!
In that city of endless days
God with His people there always
O praise Him, O praise Him
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia!
