Jerusalem: A Dream of Hope and Glory

2. Last night I lay asleeping– There came a dream so fair,

3. I stood in old Jerusalem Beside the Temple there;

4. I heard the children singing And ever, as they sang,

5. Methought the voice of angels From heaven in answer rang,

6. Methought the voice of angels From heaven in answer rang:

7. Jerusalem, Jerusalem, Lift up your gates and sing!

8. Hosanna in the highest! Hosanna to your King!

10. And then methought my dream was changed, The streets no longer rang,

11. Hushed were the glad Hosannas The little children sang;

12. The sun grew dark with mystery,

13. The morn was cold and chill,

14. As the shadow of a cross arose Upon a lonely hill,

15. As the shadow of a cross arose Upon a lonely hill.

16. Jerusalem, Jerusalem, Hark how the angels sing!

17. Hosanna in the highest! Hosanna to your King!

19. And once again my dream was changed– New earth there seemed to be,

20. I saw the Holy City

21. Beside the tideless sea;

22. The light of God was on its streets,

23. The gates were open wide…

24. That all who would might enter,

25. And no one was denied;

26. No need of moon or stars by night,

27. Or sun to shine by day–

28. It was the New Jerusalem That would not pass away,

29. It was the New Jerusalem That would not pass away!

30. Jerusalem, Jerusalem!

31. Sing, for the night is over!

32. Hosanna in the highest! Hosanna forevermore!

33. Hosanna in the highest!

34. Hosanna forevermore!
