Then I Saw a New Heaven and Earth

Author: Christopher M. Idle Hymnal: HFLC1974 #543 (1974) Meter: Irregular First Line: Then I saw a new heav'n and earth Lyrics: 1 Then I saw a new heaven and earth For the first had passed away; And the holy city came down from God, Like a bride on her wedding day. And I know how He loves His own, For I heard His great voice tell They would be His people, and He their God, And among them He came to dwell. 2 He will wipe away every tear; Even death shall die at last; There'll be no more crying,, or grief or pain, They belong to the world that's past. And the One on the throne said, "Look! I am making all things new." He is A and Z, He is first and last, And His words are exact and true. 3 So the thirsty can drink their fill At the fountain giving life; But the gates are shut on all evil things, On deceit and decay and strife. With foundations and walls and towers Like a jewel, the city shines, With its streets of gold and its gates of pearl In a glory where each combines. 4 As they measured its length and breadth I could see no temple there, For its only temple is God the Lord And the Lamb in that city fair. And it needs neither sun nor moon In a place which knows no night, For the city's lamp is the Lamb Himself, And the glory of God its light. 5 And I saw by the sacred throne Flowing water, crystal clear, And the tree of life with its healing leaves And its fruit growing all the year. So the worshipers of the Lamb Bear His name, and see His face; And they reign and serve and forever live To the praise of His glorious grace.

May I but safely reach my home, My God, my heav'n, my all; My God, my heav'n, my all, My God, my heav'n, my all, May I but safely reach my home, My God, my heav'n, my all. 4 There I shall bathe my weary soul In seas of heav'nly rest, And not a wave of trouble roll Across my peaceful breast, Across my peaceful breast, Across my peaceful breast, And not a wave of trouble roll Across my peaceful breast.

To Holy Ghost be praises, To Father and to Son; The Church her voice upraises To thee, blest Three in One. Amen Scripture: Genesis 1:3 Languages: English Tune Title: MENDEBRAS
