Over in revelation
John tells of a vision
He saw a holy city built by God
The gates there are open all day
But there is no night
The Lamb of God is the light
He saw a new city coming down
The new Jerusalem
Wouldn't you like to know what John saw
He saw twelve gates of pearl
He saw jasper walls
And one day, I'll see what John saw
Fifteen hundred miles high
Fifteen hundred miles wide
Oh, what a city in the sky
For all who stand true
Live right will make it through
Soon, we'll get to see what John saw
He saw a new city coming down
The new Jerusalem
Wouldn't you like to know what John saw
He saw twelve gates of pearl
He saw jasper walls
And one day, I'll see what John saw
I'll live in that beautiful city
When I hear that trumpet call
And the most blessed sight I'll see
Is the Maker of it all
He saw a new city coming down
The new Jerusalem
Wouldn't you like to know what John saw
He saw twelve gates of pearl
He saw jasper walls
And one day, I'll see what John saw
He saw twelve gates of pearl
He saw jasper walls
And one day, I'll see what John saw...
