try far beyond the starry sky,
There’s a city where there never comes a night;
If we’re faithful we shall go there by and by,
’Tis the city where the Lamb is the light
(Chorus)
In that ci
ty where the Lamb is the light,
The city where there cometh no night;
I’ve a mansion over there
And when free from toil and care,
I am going where the Lamb is the light
(Verse)
Here we ha
ve our days of sunshine but we know
That the sun which shines upon us now so bright
Will be changed to clouds and rain until we go,
To the city where the Lamb is the light
(Verse)
There the flo
wers bloom forever and the day
Shall be one eternal day without a night;
And our tears shall be forever wiped away,
In that city where the Lamb is the light
(Verse)
Here we ha
ve our disappointments all the while,
And our fondest hopes but meet with bitter blight;
Tho’ by night we weep the morning brings a smile,
In that city where the Lamb is the light
(Verse)
Then let sunli
ght fade let twilight bring its gloom,
Not a shadow can my blissful soul affright;
For I know that up in heaven there is room,
In that city where the Lamb is the light
