Verse 1

G
There shall be no more weeping for I’ll wipe away your tears

And the dawning of that new day will drive away your fears

And every promise I have made will finally come true

Chorus

D7                    G                  C             G        C

There shall be no more sorrow, no more infant of days

In the light of that city that is set upon My hill

C            G                                   D                G
All the redeemed shall rejoice in New Jerusalem

Verse 2

G
In the day of the garden when mankind choose to sin

D                                                                           D
I began your redemption as I clothed you with lamb skins

For my Son would be a sacrifice on the cross of Calvary

And when that He was lifted up He would draw all men to me

Verse 3

G
Though you suffer for a moment you’ll live for eternity

G     D                                                                 D7
And all you’ve lost for My sake I’ll give to you freely

D7            G
For this life is as a vapor that fades with the morning sun

G    D                                                                                      D7
But in the light of that new day your life will have barely begun
