John tells us of a city
so high up above
where we’ll meet in a spirit of love
We’ll meet over yonder
in that heavenly place.
There we’ll see each other
face to face.
I can almost see the lights of the city—
shining down on me.
I can almost see the lights of the city
Forever, Lord, I shall be free.
John tells us of a time
when time will be no more
In the days when
the trumpet shall blow.
We’ll meet over yonder
in that heavenly place.
There we’ll see each other
face to face.
I can almost see the lights of the city—
shining down on me.
I can almost see the lights of the city
Forever, Lord, I shall be free.
John tells us of the water
which brings us to life.
When we drink
we will not thirst for more.
When we’re born in that water,
a heavenly place,
We’ll be with brothers and sisters
face to face
I can almost see the lights of the city—
shining down on me.
I can almost see the lights of the city
Forever, Lord, I shall be free.
