New Jerusalem
Words by Matt and Alexia Gilman
Music by Matt Gilman
VERSE 1
I’m looking for a city not made by human hands
I’m longing for the garden where God once walked with man
For eternity is written on my heart
I’m longing for the day when we will never be apart
VERSE 2
I looked and saw a city descending down from heaven
Prepared just like a bride for the Son of Man
There’s a day of gladness written on His heart
He is longing for the day when we will never be apart
PRECHORUS
Every tear will be wiped away, there’ll be no sorrow, hurt, or pain
There’ll be no more night
All things will be made new, it will be a brand new day
And in righteousness He’ll reign and the Lamb will be the light
CHORUS
Behold the tabernacle of God will be with men
And He will be our God, and we will be His people
And the bride she will marry the Lamb
But until that day I’m longing for the New Jerusalem
I love the day of Your appearing, I want to hasten Your return
The Spirit and the bride say, come for Your beloved ones.
