In the Land of Fadeless Day

1 

In the land of fadeless day

Lies the city four-square;

Revelation 21:16 And the city lieth foursquare, and the length is as large as the breadth: and he measured the city with the reed, twelve thousand furlongs. The length and the breadth and the height of it are equal.

It shall never pass away,

And there is no night there.

Revelation 21:25 And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there.

Chorus:

God shall wipe away all tears;

There's no death, no pain, nor fears;

Revelation 21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

And they count not time by years,

For there is no night there.

Revelation 21:5 And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.

2 

All the gates of pearl are made,

In the city four-square;

All the streets with gold are laid,

Revelation 21:21 And the twelve gates were twelve pearls: every several gate was of one pearl: and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass.

And there is no night there. [Chorus]

3 

And the gates shall never close

To the city four-square;

Revelation 21:25 And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there.

There life's crystal river flows,

Revelation 22:1 And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.

And there is no night there. [Chorus]

4 

There they need no sunshine bright,

In that city four-square;

For the Lamb is all the light,

Revelation 21:23 And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.

And there is no night there. [Chorus]
