The Holy City

Last night I lay a-sleeping
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.

Jerusalem! Jerusalem!
Lift up your gates and sing,
Hosanna in the highest!
Hosanna to your King!

And then me thought my dream was changed,
The streets no longer rang,
Hushed were the glad Hosannas
The little children sang.

The sun grew dark with mystery,
The morn was cold and chill,
As the shadow of a cross arose
Upon a lonely hill.

Jerusalem! Jerusalem!
Hark! How the angels sing,
Hosanna in the highest!
Hosanna to your King!

And once again the scene was changed;
New earth there seemed to be;
I saw the Holy City
Beside the tideless sea.

The light of God was on its streets,
The gates were open wide,
And all who would 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.

Jerusalem! Jerusalem!
Sing for the night is o'er!
Hosanna in the highest!
Hosanna for evermore!


Mirror lyrics:

Hosanna for evermore!
Hosanna in the highest!
Sing for the night is o'er!
Jerusalem! Jerusalem!

That would not pass away.
It was the new Jerusalem
Or sun to shine by day;
No need of moon or stars by night,

And no one was denied.
And all who would might enter,
The gates were open wide,
The light of God was on its streets,

Beside the tideless sea.
I saw the Holy City
New earth there seemed to be;
And once again the scene was changed;

Hosanna to your King!
Hosanna in the highest!
Hark! How the angels sing,
Jerusalem! Jerusalem!

Upon a lonely hill.
As the shadow of a cross arose
The morn was cold and chill,
The sun grew dark with mystery,

The little children sang.
Hushed were the glad Hosannas
The streets no longer rang,
And then me thought my dream was changed,

Hosanna to your King!
Hosanna in the highest!
Lift up your gates and sing,
Jerusalem! Jerusalem!

From heaven in answer rang.
Me thought the voice of angels
And ever as they sang,
I heard the children singing,

Beside the temple there.
I stood in old Jerusalem
There came a dream so fair,
Last night I lay a-sleeping
