|
|
<p>I heard a sound of voices,<br>
|
|
Around the great white throne,<br>
|
|
With harpers harping on their harps<br>
|
|
To Him that sat thereon:<br>
|
|
“Salvation, glory, honor!”<br>
|
|
I heard the song arise,<br>
|
|
As through the courts of heaven it rolled<br>
|
|
In wondrous harmonies.</p>
|
|
<p>From every clime and kindred,<br>
|
|
And nations from afar,<br>
|
|
As serried ranks returning home<br>
|
|
In triumph from a war,<br>
|
|
I heard the saints upraising,<br>
|
|
The myriad hosts among,<br>
|
|
In praise of Him Who died and lives,<br>
|
|
Their one glad triumph song.</p>
|
|
<p>I saw the holy city,<br>
|
|
The New Jerusalem,<br>
|
|
Come down from heav’n, a bride adorned<br>
|
|
With jeweled diadem;<br>
|
|
The flood of crystal waters<br>
|
|
Flowed down the golden street;<br>
|
|
And nations brought their honors there,<br>
|
|
And laid them at her feet.</p>
|
|
<p>And there no sun was needed,<br>
|
|
Nor moon to shine by night,<br>
|
|
God’s glory did enlighten all,<br>
|
|
The Lamb Himself the Light;<br>
|
|
And there His servants serve Him,<br>
|
|
And, life’s long battle o’er,<br>
|
|
Enthroned with Him, their Savior King,<br>
|
|
They reign forevermore.</p>
|
|
<p>O great and glorious vision,<br>
|
|
The Lamb upon His throne!<br>
|
|
O wondrous sight for man to see!<br>
|
|
The Savior with His own;<br>
|
|
To drink the living waters<br>
|
|
And stand upon the shore,<br>
|
|
Where neither sorrow, sin nor death<br>
|
|
Shall enter ever more.</p>
|
|
<p>O Lamb of God Who reignest,<br>
|
|
Thou bright and morning Star!<br>
|
|
Whose glory lightens that new earth<br>
|
|
Which now we see from far;<br>
|
|
O worthy Judge eternal,<br>
|
|
When Thou dost bid us come,<br>
|
|
Then open wide the gates of pearl<br>
|
|
And call Thy servants home.</p>
