In the land of fadeless day lies the city foursquare.

It shall never pass away and there is no night there.

Refrain

God shall wipe away all tears, there’s no death no pain nor fears,

And they count not time by years, for there is no night there.

All the gates of pearl are made in the city foursquare.

All the streets with gold are laid and there is no night there.

Refrain

All the gates shall never close to the city foursquare;

There life’s crystal river flows and there is no night there.

Refrain  

There they need no sunshine bright in that city foursquare,

For the Lamb is all the Light and there is no night there.

Refrain

Ending

God shall wipe away all tears, there’s no death no pain nor fears,

And they count not time by years, for there is no night there.
