Sheet music

  1. 1In the land of fadeless dayLies the city foursquare;It shall never pass away,And there is no night there.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.
  2. 2All the gates of pearl are madeIn the city foursquare;All the streets with gold are laid,And there is no night there.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.
  3. 3All the gates shall never closeTo the city foursquare;There life’s crystal river flows,And there is no night there.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.
  4. 4There they need no sunshine bright,In the city foursquare;For the Lamb is all the light,And there is no night there.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.
