I heard the child­ren sing­ing, And ev­er as they sang, I thought the voice of an­gels From Heav’n in an­swer rang; I thought the voice of an­gels From Heav’n in an­swer rang— 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 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 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 for ev­er­more! Hosanna in the high­est, Hosanna for ev­er­more!
