The Holy City-George Beverly Shea

[00:09.98]Last night I lay asleeping [00:13.66]There came a dream so fair, [00:17.50]I stood in old Jerusalem [00:20.95]Beside the temple there [00:24.89]I heard the children singing [00:28.18]And ever as they sang, [00:32.22]Methought the voice of Angels [00:35.76]From Heaven in answer rang [00:39.80]Methought the voice of Angels [00:45.33]From Heaven in answer rang [00:51.24]Jerusalem, Jerusalem! [00:57.81]Lift up you gates and sing, [01:02.63]Hosanna in the highest. [01:08.13]Hosanna to your King! [01:25.87]And then methought my dream was chang'd [01:31.05]The streets no longer rang [01:34.53]Hush'd were the glad Hosannas [01:37.29]The little children sang [01:40.88]The sun grew dark with mystery, [01:44.15]The morn was cold and chill [01:47.64]As the shadow of a cross arose [01:50.98]Upon a lonely hill [01:53.93]As the shadow of a cross arose [01:59.84]Upon a lonely hill [02:05.47]Jerusalem, Jerusalem! [02:11.61]Hark! How the Angels sing, [02:16.53]Hosanna in the highest, [02:22.39]Hosanna to your King! [02:41.49]And once again the scene was chang'd [02:44.96]New earth there seem'd to be, [02:47.80]I saw the Holy City [02:50.73]Beside the tideless sea [02:54.37]The light of god was on its streets [02:57.55]The gates were open wide, [03:00.81]And all who would might enter [03:06.12]And no one was denied. [03:12.41]No need of moon or stars by night, [03:18.50]Or sun to shine by day, [03:24.06]It was the new Jerusalem [03:29.98]That would not pass away [03:35.22]It was the new Jerusalem [03:41.14]That would not pass away [03:46.99]Jerusalem! Jerusalem [03:53.26]Sing for the night is o'er [03:58.13]Hosanna in the highest [04:04.07]Hosanna for evermore! [04:09.49]Hosanna in the highest [04:17.04]Hosanna for evermore!
