Last night I lay asleeping, there came a dream so fair
I stood in old Jerusalem beside the temple there
I heard the children singing, and ever as they sang
Methought the voice of angels from heaven answering
Methought the voice of angels from heaven answering
Jerusalem, Jerusalem!
Lift up your gates and sing
Hosanna in the highest
Hosanna to your King!
And then methought my dream was changed, the streets no longer rang
Hushed were the glad hosannas the little children sang
The sun grew dark with mystery, the morn was cold and chill
As the shadow of a cross arose upon a lonely hill
As the shadow of a cross arose upon a lonely hill
Jerusalem, Jerusalem!
Hark how the angels sing
Hosanna in the highest
Hosanna to your King!
And once again the scene was changed, new earth there seemed to be
I saw the holy city beside the tideless sea
The light of God was on its streets, the gates were opened wide
And all who would might enter and no one was denied
No need of moon or stars by night or sun to shine by day
It was the new Jerusalem that would not pass away
It was the new Jerusalem that would not pass away
Jerusalem, Jerusalem!
Sing, for the night is o'er
Hosanna in the highest
Hosanna forevermore!
Hosanna in the highest
Hosanna forevermore!
I stood in old Jerusalem beside the temple there
I heard the children singing, and ever as they sang
Methought the voice of angels from heaven answering
Methought the voice of angels from heaven answering
Jerusalem, Jerusalem!
Lift up your gates and sing
Hosanna in the highest
Hosanna to your King!
And then methought my dream was changed, the streets no longer rang
Hushed were the glad hosannas the little children sang
The sun grew dark with mystery, the morn was cold and chill
As the shadow of a cross arose upon a lonely hill
As the shadow of a cross arose upon a lonely hill
Jerusalem, Jerusalem!
Hark how the angels sing
Hosanna in the highest
Hosanna to your King!
And once again the scene was changed, new earth there seemed to be
I saw the holy city beside the tideless sea
The light of God was on its streets, the gates were opened wide
And all who would might enter and no one was denied
No need of moon or stars by night or sun to shine by day
It was the new Jerusalem that would not pass away
It was the new Jerusalem that would not pass away
Jerusalem, Jerusalem!
Sing, for the night is o'er
Hosanna in the highest
Hosanna forevermore!
Hosanna in the highest
Hosanna forevermore!
