There's a holy and beautiful city Whose Builder and Ruler is God; John saw it descending from Heaven When Patmos, in exile, he trod; Its high, massive wall is of jasper The city itself is pure gold; And when my frail tent here is folded Mine eyes shall its glory behold In that bright city, pearly white city I have a mansion, a harp, and a crown; Now I am watching, waiting, and longing For the white city John saw coming down No sin is allowed in that city And nothing defiling or mean; No pain and no sickness can enter No crepe on the doorknob is seen; Earth's sorrows and cares are forgotten No tempter is there to annoy; No parting words ever are spoken There's nothing to hurt or destroy No heartaches are known in that city No tears ever moisten the eyes; There's no disappointment in Heaven No envy and strife in the sky; The saints are all sanctified wholly They live in sweet harmony there; My heart is now set on that city And some day its blessings I'll share My loved ones are gathering yonder My friends too are passing away And soon I shall join their bright number And dwell in eternity's day; They're safe now in glory with Jesus Their trials and battles are past They overcame sin and the tempter They've reached that fair city at last
