Oh, what a beautiful city
Oh, what a beautiful city
Oh, what a beautiful city
Twelve gates to the city, hallelujahAnd it's oh, what a beautiful
Oh, what a beautiful city
Oh, what a beautiful city
Twelve gates to the city, hallelujahThere's three gates in the East
There's three gates in the West
There's three gates in the North
There's three gates in the South
That makes twelve gates to the city, hallelujahAnd it's, oh oh oh, what a beautiful
Oh, oh, what a beautiful
Twelve gates to the city, hallelujahGod Almighty, what you talkin' 'bout?
Oh, Lordy, yeahOh Lord, what a beautiful city
Oh, what a beautiful city
Oh, what a beautiful city
Twelve gates to the city, hallelujahIf you see my dear old mother
Won't you please tell her for me
That I'm on my way to the city
For the 'Meet me and Galilee'
They've made twelve gates to the city, hallelujahOh oh oh, what a beautiful
Whoa, oh oh oh, what a beautiful city
Twelve gates to the city, hallelujahOh Lord, what a beautiful
Whoa, oh Lord, what a beautiful city
Twelve gates to the city, hallelujah
