In That City Where The Lamb Is The Light Lyrics & Chords

Written by Herbert Buffum, Music by Robert E. Winsett

(D)There’s a country far beyond the starry sky,
There’s a (A)city where there never comes a (D)night;
If we’re (G)faithful we shall go there by and (D)by,
’Tis the (G)city where the (A)Lamb is the (D)light.
Chorus
(D)In that city where the Lamb is the light,
The city where there cometh no (A)night;
I’ve a (D)mansion over there,
And when free from toil and care,
I am (G)going where the (A)Lamb is the (D)light.
D)Here we have our days of sunshine, but we know
That the (A)sun which shines upon us now so (D)bright
Will be (G)changed to clouds and rain until we (D)go
To the (G)city where the (A)Lamb is the (D)light.
(D)There the flowers bloom forever and the day
Shall (A)be one eternal day without a (D)night;
And our (G)tears shall be forever wiped (D)away,
In that (G)city where the (A)Lamb is the (D)light.
(D)Here we have our disappointments all the while,
And our (A)fondest hopes but meet with bitter (D)blight;
Tho’ by (G)night we weep, the morning brings a (D)smile,
In that (G)city where the (A)Lamb is the (D)light.
(D)Then let sunlight fade, let twilight bring its gloom,
Not a (A)shadow can my blissful soul (D)affright;
For I (G)know that up in Heaven there is (D)room,
In that (G)city where the (A)Lamb is the (D)light.
