I dreamed I had gone to that city
That city where never comes night
And I saw the bright angels in glory
I saw the fair mansions of light
I gazed for long, long years of rapture
On the face of my Savior so true
And I sang with the seraphim holy
Then I dreamed I searched heaven for you
(Chorus)
I dreamed I searched heaven for you
Searched vainly thru heaven for you
Oh, won't you prepare, to meet me up there
Lest we should search heaven for you
I looked on both sides of the river
That flows thru the City of God
I searched thru bright mansions celestial
And streets of gold pavement I trod
The faces of saints by the million
I scanned in my yearning to see
That face I had cherished so fondly
The face that had grown dear to me
(Repeat chorus
