ci­ty

Beautiful ci­ty, none on earth so fair;
The beau­ti­ful ci­ty, the beau­ti­ful ci­ty,
Beautiful Zi­on, glo­ri­ous ci­ty,
Beautiful coun­try, trea­sures most rare;
There’s a home for ev­ery­one;
There’s a home for ev­ery­one;
Oh, the ci­ty of the Lord is com­ing down;
Tho’ dark ag­es have rolled,
You can see its sil­ver spires o’er the sea;
’Twas the pro­mised Ho­ly Ghost
When we both, you and I,
If we’re faith­ful we shall go there by and by,
Its gates are of pearl, and its streets are of gold,
Whose build­er and mak­er is God;
From earth­ly sor­rows free,
O’er the val­ley of death,
From earth­ly sor­rows free,
It shall nev­er pass away,
With its man­sions bright and fair,
Beautiful ci­ty fair, beau­ti­ful ci­ty fair;
