Lyrics

Verse 1
In the land of fade­less day, (Isa. 60:19-20)
Lies the ci­ty four­square, (Rev. 21:16)
It shall nev­er pass away,
And there is no night there. (Rev. 21:25, Rev. 22:5)

Chorus
God shall wipe away all tears (Isaiah 25:8, Revelation 7:14, Revelation 21:4)
There’s no death, no pain, nor fears; (Rev. 21:4)
And they count not time by years, (Rev. 10:6)
For there is no night there. (Rev. 21:25, Rev. 22:5)

Verse 2
All the gates of pearl are made, (Rev. 21:21)
In the ci­ty four­square, (Rev. 21:16)
All the streets with gold are laid, (Rev. 21:21)
And there is no night there. (Rev. 21:25, Rev. 22:5)

Verse 3
All the gates shall nev­er close, (Rev. 21:25)
To the ci­ty four­square, (Rev. 21:16)
There life’s crys­tal riv­er flows, (Rev. 22:1-2, Ezek. 47:1-12)
And there is no night there. (Rev. 21:25, Rev. 22:5)

Verse 4
There they need no sun­shine bright, (Rev. 21:23)
In that ci­ty four­square, (Rev. 21:16)
For the Lamb is all the light, (Rev. 21:23, Isa. 60:19-20)
And there is no night there. (Rev. 21:25, Rev. 22:5)
