Lyrics
I see angels at the gates
High on that mount
The city streets, walls are paved pure gold
An angel spoke out
Showed me 'round the town
He showed me around
He measured it out
He showed me New Jerusalem
New creation
I hear the river of life
I hear the stream
Flowing from the throne
Oh, jump in the leaves
Of that tree
I'll jump in the leaves
We won't need the sun or moon
Adorned in the light of the lamb, the root
Oh, show me to the new river
Flowing between those streets
I'll reach on each side for that fruit
I'll reach for words faithful and true
I see a rider on a horse
Faithful and true
His eyes, a fiery flame
Crowns on His head
Robe dipped in blood
Now we can walk the city streets
Now we can walk
We won't need the sun or moon
Adorned in the light of the lamb, the root
Oh, show me to the new river
Flowing between those streets
I'll reach on each side for that fruit
I'll reach for words faithful and true
Jasper and emerald, chalcedony
Lined in the fabric of our bodies
Sapphire, beryl, carnelian
Don't have a temple but I've heard it said
"I am the root, I'm the first and the last"
"I'm the bright morning star, I am coming soon"
"I am coming soon"
