Ditosa Cidade
Shirley Carvalhaes
Blissful City
The blissful city must be beautiful
If I could, I would go there now
I would see the Lord face to face
I would sing in that immense choir
I would see angels and cherubim there
Gathered, singing hosannas to the King
Soon this thought of mine will be reality
For I will fly there
I would also see all the disciples
Who walked here preaching the word
I imagine embracing Paul and James
Seeing John, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob
I would see angels and cherubim there
Gathered, singing hosannas to the King
Soon this thought of mine will be reality
For I will fly there
Brother, if we stay in communion with Christ (with Christ)
In that beautiful city we will dwell
We will see the Lord (we will see) face to face
We will sing in that immense choir
We will see angels and cherubim there
Gathered, singing hosannas to the King
We will have only pleasure and much joy
Forever, amen!
