The Porter’s Gate
O Jerusalem
[Verse 1]
They have told us of a city
Where our tears are washed away
And every shadowed valley
Is washed in endless day

[Verse 2]
They have told us of a table
Where the poor are honored guests
Where all the weary wanderers
Come in to bless and rest

[Chorus]
Will we see the day of the City of God?
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem
Can we run away, to the City of God?
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem!

[Verse 3]
They have told us of a chorus
Where our voices join as one
In songs of celebration
That all our wars are done

[Chorus]
Will we see the day of the City of God?
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem!
Can we run away, to the City of God?
O Jerusalem, Jerusalem!
[Bridge] (sung in a round)
Ahhh, Ohhhh ohhhh
Come, Lord Jesus, Come! (Come, Lord Jesus, Come)
Come, Lord Jesus, Come! (Come, Lord Jesus, Come)
Come, Lord Jesus, Come! (Come, Lord Jesus, Come)
Come, Lord Jesus, Come!

[Verse 4]
They have told us of a city
Where all death will be undone
And all our tearful mourning
Gives way to healing song
