The New JerusalemWords and music: Mark Graham, 1 When the thousand years are ended,
and death is cast away,
The first heav'n and the first earth
in fire shall pass away.
From new heaven to new earth shall come
the new Jerusalem.
And the dwelling of the Father
at last shall be with men.
2 Like a bride dressed for the bridegroom
the city of God shall be.
Her walls shall shine like jasper
of gold shall be her streets.
Her gates are twelve in number
an angel at each one.
And each of her foundations
is set with precious stones.
3 From the Father's throne, a river
as clear as crystal flows,
And on its banks forever
the tree of life shall grow.
Its leaves shall heal the nations,
its fruit shall be for food.
And there shall be no more curse there,
but all shall be for good.
4 They shall need no sun by day there,
nor moon to shine by night,
For the glory of their God and
the Lamb shall be its light.
His saints shall reign forever,
from death they shall be free.
God will dwell among His people,
for all eternity.
