Author: Louise Lapp Hymnal: The Hymnal for Worship and Celebration #547 (1986) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: John saw the heav'n and earth made new Lyrics: 1 John saw the heav’n and earth made new,
The first had passed away,
The Holy city coming down,
The new Jerusalem.
2 And God Himself shall dwell with men,
And wipe away all tears,
There is no sorrow, pain or death,
Throughout the coming years.
3 "Behold, I make all things anew,"
These faithful words are true,
To him who overcometh sin,
On earth with God shall rule.
4 In beautiful Jerusalem,
God’s glory gives it light,
All kings and nations walk in it,
"For there shall be no night." Topics: Life Everlasting Scripture: Revelation 21 Tune Title: McKEE
