This is my very favorite collection of songs about the book of Revelation, composed by my very favorite modern hymn writer, Michael Card. Please listen and take in the beautiful lyrics and music that are meant to encourage us as we traverse life with all its challenges.

Lyrics:
I saw the Holy City
Descending from the sky
So brilliant with the light of God
The city is His bride
There is no temple in this town
No sun, no moon, no lamp
For God's own glory is it's light
Illuminated by the Lamb
And God Himself will wipe the tears
From every weeping eye
No death, no pain, no mourning cry
And every tear made dry
CHORUS:
And now our God will dwell with them
The new Jerusalem
And He Himself will walk with them
The new Jerusalem
And so let all of those who thirst
Come now and drink for free
And to the one who overcomes
Come now and you will see
Behold the old has passed away
Now everything is new
The Alpha and Omega's words
Are trustworthy and so true
And God Himself will wipe the tears
From every weeping eye
No death, no pain, no mourning cry
And every tear made dry
I have this CD in my car, I know the songs and so do my granddaughters who travel with me. I smile when I hear the four year old in the back seat singing the words. The songs are straight out of revelations. I love Michael Card his songs are teachings in themselves. Thanks for taking the time to write the words so we can take them in.
