The Holy City, ARV_11

The Holy City, ARV_11 - André Rieu (安德列里歐)/Johann Strauss Orchestra

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

We thought the voice of Angels

From Heaven in answer rang

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 methought my dream was changed

The streets no longer rang

Hushed were the glad hossanahs

A little children sang

The sun grew dark with mystery

The morn was cold and chill

As the shadow of the cross arose

Upon a lonely hill

As the shadow of the cross arose

Upon a lonely hill

Jerusalem Jerusalem

Hark how the angels sing

Hossanah in highest

Hosannah 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

It was the new Jerusalem

That would not pass away

Jerusalem Jerusalem

Sing for the night is over

Hosannah in the highest

Hosannah for evermore

Hosannah in the highest

Hosannah for evermore
