[Verse 1]
Passing through pearl gates
of New Jerusalem,
I could clearly see.
All the things that had become so precious
now spread out in front of me.
I was lost and I was nothing.
With love, he guided me.
With God's grace,
with love and heart-rending prayers
his tears fell for me.
My shepherd led me all the way.
He fed me with the truth.
He guided my heart in the way of the Word.
The tears well up and flow down my face.
[Refrain]
The glorious beauty of New Jerusalem,
it takes my breath away.
The brilliant light that lights up Heaven,
it moves my heart and soul.
Thank You Father for Your love for me
and thank You, my Lord Jesus.
Till I reached New Jerusalem
and made it home,
my shepherd he had led me.
My shepherd he had led me.
I give you thanks.
[Ending]
I love you so. I love you so.
[Verse 2]
There's a place just past the waters of life
the Lord prepared for me.
The light from the precious gemstones
arcs out in heavenly beauty.
The Lord knew
the deepest part of my heart
and things that gave me joy.
He prepared a home just for me
in New Jerusalem.
I give thanks with joy that overflows
to my Father God.
All my thanks I give
are wrapped in His glory.
All thanks and glory may my Lord receive.
