       Through the gates to the city in a robe of spotless white,
            He will lead me where no tears will ever fall;
          In the glad song of ages I will mingle with delight,
             But I long to meet my Savior first of all.
        114.  WHEN MY CONFLICTS CEASE
       ···························cuANDO CESENLOS.CONFLICTOS
                  Col 3.3 SLEEP/ Heb 11.16 HOPE
      When my conflicts cease to hurt me in this earthly life below,
            And I leave behind afflictions of this world;
      We shall cross the gates eternal of the home prepared for us,
                    In the new Jerusalem.
                        CHORUS
      With the saints we will be singing of redemption of our souls,
                     //In Jerusalem//
         In a cry of jubilation we shall praise the Lord above!
                   In the New Jerusalem.
                           2
    Though the waves are rising higher, though the storm is brewing
                          fear,
         Though our vessel should be shaken by their might;
     We shall reach the shores of heaven, by our faith in Jesus Christ,
                    In the New Jerusalem.
                           3
       Let us consecrate our lives to the full service of the Lord,
            And the wonder of salvation loud proclaim;
       If we're working in His vineyard we shall have a just reward,
                    In the New Jerusalem.
                           4
        In that city filled with beauty we will never say goodbye,
             And we'll live a life of happiness and bliss,
       Face to face we will see Jesus Christ the Savior of our souls,
                    In the New Jerusalem.
