New Jerusalem Joys

Tune: Regent Square

(\'Lord of beauty, thine the splendour\')

Revelation 21 v.22-27

***********

New Jerusalem, the city

There no need of temple be

For the Lord God He Almighty

And the Lamb (Christ) the temple be

Holy dwelling, inhabitants

God\'s presence they know and sense

 

And there no need of sun or moon

To shine in it to illume

For the glory of God its light

Shines there eternally bright

Here the Rapture, sin, dark, gloom gone

Presence strong of Christ the Son

 

The nations of them which are saved

Shall walk in that light, it paved

By the Lamb, He be God\'s own Son

Salvation for all has won

Rulers of the earth do bring their

Honour, glory there to share

 

The gates of of it shall not shut be

By day, and no night there, see

Honour, glory of the nations

They shall bring into it, sons

And daughter of light shall reisde

There, for ever shall abide

 

Nothing at all that does defile

Nor of abominable

Nor no lies. these things not enter

Into that city, \'tis sure

Only they that are written in

Lamb\'s book of life, without sin
