When the City Cometh Down

Oh

the ci­ty of the Lord is com­ing down

Oh

the ci­ty of the Lord is com­ing down;

When the saints for Je­sus wait­ing

Shall re­ceive the vic­tor’s crown

When the ci­ty of the Lord com­eth down.

Cometh down

com­eth down

When the ci­ty of the Lord com­eth down

There’ll be glo­ry all around

When the wait­ing saints are crowned;

When the ci­ty of the Lord com­eth down.

There’ll be joy in earth and Heav­en in that day

There’ll be joy in earth and Heav­en in that day;

We’ll sing glo­ry

hal­le­lu­jah!

When we all re­ceive a crown

When the ci­ty of the Lord com­eth down.

All the peo­ple of the Lord shall be as one

All the peo­ple of the Lord shall be as one;

When the Bride­groom comes in glo­ry

And we all re­ceive a crown

When the ci­ty of the Lord com­eth down.

There will be no death nor sor­row in that day

There will be no death nor sor­row in that day;

For the hand of God

our Fa­ther

All our tears shall wipe away

When the ci­ty of the Lord com­eth down.

In that love­ly gold­en city we are told

In that love­ly gold­en ci­ty we are told;

Saints will all unite in sing­ing

With a gold­en harp and crown

When the ci­ty of the Lord com­eth down.
