Last night I lay asleeping
There came a dream so fair
I stood in old Jerusalem beside the temple there
I heard the children singing and ever as they sang
Me thought the voice of angels from heaven in answer rang
Me thought the voice of angels from heaven in answer rang
Jerusalem, Jerusalem
Lift up your gates and sing
Hosanna in the highest
Hosanna to your king...
And once again the same scene was changed, new earth there seems to be
I saw the holy city beside the timeless seas
The light of God was on its Street, the gates were open wide
That all who want might enter
And no one was denied
No need of moon or stars by night
Or sun to shine by day...
IT was the new Jerusalem that would not pass away
It was the new Jerusalem that would not pass away
Jerusalem, Jerusalem
Sing for the night is o'er
Hosanna in the highest
Hosanna for ever more...
Hosanna in the highest...
Hosanna for ever more.
