I Have Read Of A Beautiful City,
Far Away In The Kingdom Of God;
I Have Read How Its Walls Are Of Jasper,
How Its Streets Are All Golden And Broad;
In The Midst Of The Street Is Life’s River,
Clear As Crystal And Pure To Behold;
But Not Half Of That City’s Bright Glory
To Mortals Has Ever Been Told.
Not Half Has Ever Been Told;
Not Half Has Ever Been Told;
Not Half Of That City’s Bright Glory
To Mortals Has Ever Been Told.
I Have Read Of Bright Mansions In Heaven,
Which The Savior Has Gone To Prepare;
And The Saints Who On Earth Have Been Faithful,
Rest Forever With Christ Over There;
There No Sin Ever Enters, Nor Sorrow,
The Inhabitants Never Grow Old;
But Not Half Of The Wonderful Story
To Mortals Has Ever Been Told.
I Have Read Of White Robes For The Righteous,
Of Bright Crowns Which The Glorified Wear,
When Our Father Shall Bid Them, “Come, Enter,
And My Glory Eternally Share”;
How The Righteous Are Evermore Blessed
As They Walk Through The Streets Of Pure Gold;
But Not Half Of The Wonderful Story
To Mortals Has Ever Been Told.
I Have Read Of A Christ So Forgiving,
That Vile Sinners May Ask And Receive
Peace And Pardon For Every Transgression,
If When Asking They Only Believe.
I Have Read How He’ll Guide And Protect Us,
If For Safety We Enter His Fold;
But Not Half Of His Goodness And Mercy
To Mortals Has Ever Been Told.
