Текст песни The Holy City - Russian State Chorus

Last night I lay asleeping
There came a dream so fair
I stood in old Jerusalem
Beside the Temple there
I heard the children singing
And ever as they sang
Me thought the voice of Angels
From Heaven' in answer rang
Me thought the voice of Angels
From Heav'n in answer rang

Jerusalem! Jerusalem!
Lift up you gates and sing
Hosanna in the highest!
Hosanna to your King!

And then me thought my dream was chang'd
The streets no longer rang
Hush'd were the glad Hosannas
The little children sang
The sun grew dark with mystery
The morn was cold and chill
As the shadow of a cross arose
Upon a lonely hill
As the shadow of a cross arose
Upon a lonely hill

Jerusalem! Jerusalem!
Hark! How the Angels sing
Hosanna in the Highest!
Hosanna to your King!

Jerusalem! Jerusalem!
Sing for the night o'er
Hosanna in the highest!
Hosanna for evermore!
Hosanna in the highest!
Hosanna for evermore!
