LYRICS
I see the troubles of our time
I see the hunger
I see the sickness
I see injustice
I see the evil of our time
… and yet
I see the troubles wearing out:
I see the sickness
I see injustice
I see the evil of our time
… and yet
I see the troubles wearing out:
I see a beautiful city
rising from the abyss;
the tears of mourning
the tears of mourning
will soon be turned
to dancing and joy!
to dancing and joy!
There is a river,
whose streams make glad
whose streams make glad
the beautiful city of God!
Text by LE, inspired by:
the end of Charles Dickens’ Tale of Two Cities,
and by Psalms 30, v. 11 and 46, v. 4
