One night while I [E] was sleeping [Em] I had a [A] dream so [D] fair
I stood in [G] old Jerusalem [E] beside the temple [A]
[G] there
[A] I [D] heard the children [A] singing [Em] and [A] ever as they [D]
sang
[D#] I thought [G#] the voice [A] of angels [E] from heaven in answer [A]
I thought
[E] the voice [A] of [F#m] angels [B] from [A] heaven [C#m] in [E] answer [C#] rang
[D] [A] Jerusalem, [D] Jerusalem, [G] heart of the angels [D] sing
[A] Hosanna in the [F#m] highest, [D] Hosanna [A] to [D] your King
And then I thought my [Em] dream was changed the streets no [A] longer [D] rang
As with [F#] those glad [G] Hosannas [E] that the little children [A] [G] sang
[A] [D] The sun grew dark with [Em] mystery [Em] and the morn was cold [D] and chilled

And [F#] once again my [B] dream was changed [G#] new earth there [F#] seemed to be
[Fm] And I saw [D] the [F#] holy city [C#] beside the crystal [F#] sea
[D#m] The light of God was [A#m] on its streets and its gates [A] they were open [E] wide
[E] That [A]
all who would my [D] [G] enter and [D]
no [A] one was [D] denied
No [F#]
need of moon or [Bm] the stars [D] by night [G] or the sun [A] to shine
[D] For it [D#] was the new [A] Jerusalem [E] that would not pass [A] away
It [E] was the new
[A] Jerusalem [C#m]
[F#m] that [B] [A] would [F#m] not pass away
