THE ETERNAL HOMELAND


The holy city,the new Jerusalem,
is the eternal homeland
of God's redeemed,
who worship Him
as His servants
and love Him
above all else.


The trees here
are trees of everlasting life,
bearing twelve kinds of fruits,
satisfying every desire.


God's pure river
with the waters of eternal life
flow from His throne
through land made of gems and gold.


Here every word is praise
and every posture, worship;
and all the nations and rulers
of the world,
bring their glory into the city,
and walk in its light.


Since every moment
in the new Jerusalem
is spent in loving worship
of God and the lamb,
there is no night there,
neither sun nor moon,
for its light is the Lord God,
and He shines on us
and we see His face
and reign with Him
through eternal ages.
