Tune: Wiltshire
('Through all the changing scenes of life')
Revelation 22 v.1-5
********
John, who in his vision he saw
New Jerusalem sure
In it there be a river pure
Water of life, health-cure
Clear as crystal, it did proceed
Out of the throne indeed
Throne of God and of the Lamb, there
It flowed for all to share
In middle of the street, and too
On sides of river, view
The tree of life, which there did bear
Twelve manner of fruits fair
Its fruit it every month did yield
And its leaves no concealed
But were for healing of nations
Reaching to all stations
And there shall be no more curse, throne
Of God and Lamb alone
Shall be in it, and His servants
Shall serve, know His presence
They shall see his face, and His name
On their foreheads, the same
Lord God who reigns there, and no night
Be, but perpetual light
No candle, lamp, or light of sun
The Lord God lights each one
Who dwells there, they shall reign for e'er
With separation ne'er
