New Jerusalem Letra

visions of a celestial holy city

12 gates of Jerusalem
12 angels surround the wall
only one way leads inside the gates
only one way prepared for us all

I have seen the New Jerusalem
Glorious, the new Jerusalem
behold, the world of corruption has passed away
out of the ashes below me I rise
into the city of new life, the power, the way
ascending into paradise

by the grace of the holy one
I am free from this world of desolation
free from greed, lust and selfishness
to nevermore be a slave to this wicked flesh

by the ultimate sacrifice
I'm alive, yet transcend this life
from this old world of death burning down
now I walk through the ashes unto holy ground

I have seen the New Jerusalem
Glorious, the new Jerusalem
behold, the world of corruption has passed away
out of the ashes below me I rise
into the city of new life, the power, the way
ascending into paradise
