A Cidade Celeste

Oh, heavenly Zion, rest of the saints
Your architect is called the Lord
Into you we will enter, with joy and song
With those who worship the good Savior
In a beautiful plain you are situated
And how majestic a queen you are!
Adorned with precious stones
You show the glory of Christ Jesus
Of Christ Jesus, of Christ Jesus
You show the glory of Christ Jesus

Your beautiful paths treated with zeal
And your towers, what a sight they will be!
Of all the palaces, grand is the model
In you we will have consolation
The gates of the wall are all beautiful
The square is paved with shining gold
In you these things are very glorious
And you are full of the peace of Jesus!
Of the peace of Jesus, of the peace of Jesus
And you are full of the peace of Jesus

Never will there be any night in you
Your great perpetual luminary will be
Without the light of the Sun, nor of stars or Moon
The glory of Christ will illuminate you
And in this splendor, of a true Sun
The saints and angels of heaven will enter
And Jesus, the Lamb, will come in front
With him they will reign there forever
They will reign there, they will reign there
With him they will reign there forever

Oh! What a great feast is granted to us
With the table set, the Lord awaits
All inscribed in the book of life
And who no longer fear death
Of all those who were bought by Christ
The beautiful procession will be composed
And God, who has given his beloved Son
With Christ in glory, will console them
He will console them, he will console them
With Christ in glory, he will console them
