The City

There's a city in the distance
 I can see it oh so clear
 The light is shining brightly
 The glow it draws me near
 Oh, more beauty each mile, in every mile
 All the people wear a smile
 It's the city of the master
 And to go you must be changed
 Yes, Jesus is the master of the city bright and fair
 To dwell with Him in heaven
 Is to live without a care
 Oh, more beauty each mile, in every mile
 All the people wear a smile
 It's the city of the master
 And to go you must be changed
 Changed from this life of sin
 To one that brings great joy within
 Changed in the twinkling of an eye
 We'll meet Him in the sky, in the sky
 In the city of the master
 To go you must be changed
 Changed from this life of sin
 To one that brings great joy within
 Changed in the twinkling of an eye
 We'll meet him in the sky
 We'll be changed
 In the land of fadeless days
 Lies a city that's four square
 Where we'll never have to toil
 And the lamb shall live right there
 God shall wipe away all tears
 No more sorrow pain or fears
 Where we'll count not time by years
 And there will not be no darkness there
 God shall wipe away your tears
 No more sorrow pain or fears
 Where we'll count not the time by years
 And there'll be no darkness there
