The First Look - Inspirations

1) I was standing on the banks of a river last night, when I gazed on a city so bright, pearly gates were being opened in the light I could see, Jesus standing with his arms opened wide

C) Golden trumpets were sounding, Heaven's choir were gathering, all the angels were playing in perfect harmony, little babies were smiling, cripple children were walking, blinded eyes were being opened for the first look at Christ the king

2) There were many who were waiting near the portals that day, for their first glimpse of loved ones so dear, all their cares had been forgotten and their troubles were ore', as they stood on that beautiful shore...

Chorus repeats go like this

All of the trumpets in heaven were sounding,

All of the choir dressed in white robes were gathering,

All of the angels their gold harps were playing in perfect harmony

1) Je me tenais au bord d'une rivière la nuit dernière, quand j'ai regardé une ville si brillante que des portes nacrées s'ouvraient dans la lumière que je pouvais voir, Jésus debout les bras grands ouverts

C) Les trompettes d'or sonnaient, la chorale céleste se rassemblait, tous les anges jouaient en parfaite harmonie, les petits bébés souriaient, les enfants infirmes marchaient, les yeux aveugles s'ouvraient pour le premier regard sur le Christ roi

2) Il y en avait beaucoup qui attendaient près des portails ce jour-là, pour leur premier aperçu d'êtres chers si chers, tous leurs soucis avaient été oubliés et leurs problèmes étaient minimes, alors qu'ils se tenaient sur ce beau rivage ...

Les répétitions du refrain vont comme ça

Toutes les trompettes du paradis sonnaient,

Toute la chorale vêtue de robes blanches se rassemblait,

Tous les anges jouaient avec leurs harpes d'or en parfaite harmonie
