Lyrics:
Last night I lay a-sleeping
There came a dream so fair
I stood in old Jerusalem
Beside the temple there
I heard the children singing
And ever as they sung
Methought the voice of angels
From heav'n in answer rung
Methought the voice of angels
From heav'n in answer rung
Jerusalem, Jerusalem!
Lift up your gates and sing
Hosanna in the highest!
Hosanna to your King!
And then methought my dream was chang'd
The streets no longer rung
Hush'd were the glad hosannas
The little children sung
The sun grew dark with mist
And in the morn was cold and chill
As the shadow of a cross arose
Upon the lonely hill
As the shadow of a cross arose
Upon the lonely hill
Jerusalem, Jerusalem!
Hark! how the angels sing
Hosanna in the highest!
Hosanna to your King!
And once again the scene was chang'd
New earth there seem'd to be
I saw the holy city
Beside the tideless sea
The light of God was on its streets
The gates were open 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 could not pass away
It was the new Jerusalem
That could not pass away
Jerusalem, Jerusalem!
Sing for the night is o'er
Hosanna in the highest!
Hosanna forevermore!
Hosanna in the highest!
Hosanna forevermore!
