The City
A Wondrous City
This Holy Jerusalem
Containing at one time
A temple built for only
HIM
His presence to visit
Between golden cherubim’s wings
He listened
While choirs on its steps
To Him did sing
His Name
His Power
His Fame
To it one day
This Only God
Will return
After all evil
Is vanquished
Destroyed
In one heartbeat,
Burned
So we raise holy hands
As we fall to our knees
In obedience’s path
Seeking only to please
(to be transformed
your earth & us)
No longer to rebel in ignorance
Against your beauty
To rise to Your higher calling,
That greater, purer duty
And follow Your Forever Call
Watching, waiting
As once again your raise
Her holy walls
Regrow, renew
Re-begin
This Holy Jerusalem!
