Cidade de Deus
Elaine de Jesus
City of God
Far beyond, beyond infinity
High above the Sun and the stars
There is a place
A place, much more than beautiful
Where those who conquer
The battles, will rest
There is a holy city there
With streets of gold, walls of jasper
A beautiful treasure, city of God
The corners and squares seem
Shining crystal, the whole city
Is resplendent, city of God
I want to enter there, I want to live there
I will walk the streets
I will be in a choir of angels, singing
And when I arrive there, I want to embrace
With you who are fighting here
Also preparing to ascend
To this beautiful place
I want to arrive, in the city of God
I will live, next to the throne of God
I will stay, and live forever, always there
I want to walk, on the streets of gold and sing
My eyes will never cry
For eternity, I will be happy
I will be happy, in the city of God
There is a holy city there
With streets of gold, walls of jasper
A beautiful treasure, city of God
The corners and squares seem
Shining crystal, the whole city
Is resplendent, city of God
I want to arrive, in the city of God
I will live, next to the throne of God
I will stay, and live forever, always there
I want to walk, on the streets of gold and sing
My eyes will never cry
For eternity, I will be happy
I will be happy, in the city of God
I want to arrive, in the city of God
I will live, next to the throne of God
I will stay, and live forever, always there
I want to walk, on the streets of gold and sing
My eyes will never cry
For eternity, I will be happy
I will be happy, in the city of God
City of God
