Three gates in the east
|
Three gates in the west
|
Three gates in the north
|
Three gates in the south
|
That makes twelve gates to the city Hallelujah
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Oh what a beautiful city
|
Oh what a beautiful city
|
Oh what a beautiful city
|
There's twelve gates to the city Hallelujah
|
|
Walk right in, you're welcome to the city
|
Step right up welcome to the city
|
Walk right through those gates to the city
|
There are twelve gates to the city Hallelujah
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Who are those children all dressed in red
|
Twelve gates to the city
|
Must be the children that Moses sent
|
There are twelve gates to the city Hallelujah
|
|
Rich and the poor welcome to the city
|
Young and the old welcome to the city
|
Weak and the strong welcome to the city
|
There are twelve gates to the city Hallelujah
|
|
[Chorus 2x]
|
