In the land of fadeless day,
Lies “the city foursquare,”
It shall never pass away,
And there is “no night there.”
Refrain
God shall “wipe away all tears”
There’s no death, no pain, nor fears;
And they count not time by years,
For there is “no night there.”
All the gates of pearl are made,
In “the city foursquare,”
All the streets with gold are laid,
And there is “no night there.”
Refrain
All the gates shall never close,
To “the city foursquare,”
There life’s crystal river flows,
And there is “no night there.”
Refrain
There they need no sunshine bright,
In “that city foursquare,”
For the Lamb is all the light,
And there is “no night there.”
Refrain
