I JOHN, SAW THE HOLY CITY
Author(s): Aaron David
Songbook: MB 05 Fear Not
KeyWords: God's Love,

I John, saw the Holy City, New Jerusalem,
Coming down from God out of Heaven,
Prepared as a bride adorned for her husband

Chorus 1:
Look and see, look and see,
Look and see, I see it coming,
I see it coming!
And I heard a great voice out of Heaven saying,
"Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men,
And He will dwell with them,
And they shall be His people,
And God Himself shall be with them,
And be their God

Chorus 2:
Streets of gold, streets of gold, streets of gold,
I see them shining! Gates of pearl,
[Gates of pearl, gates of pearl]
Gates of pearl, and they're wide open,
And they're wide open

And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes;
And there shall be no more death,
Neither sorrow, nor crying,
Neither shall there be any more pain:
For the former things are passed away

Chorus 3:
All things new, all things new,
Behold, all things are new,
All things new, all things new,
Behold, all things are new

Chorus 4:
These words are true, these words are true,
These words are true and faithful,
I John, saw the Holy City, New Jerusalem,
Coming down from God out of Heaven,
Prepared as a bride adorned for her husband

Chorus 5:
Look and see, look and see,
Look and see, I see it coming!
Streets of gold, streets of gold,
Streets of gold, I see them shining!
Gates of pearl, gates of pearl,
Gates of pearl, and they're wide open!
All things new, all things are new,
All things new, all things are new!
