"The Holy City"
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,
Methought the voice of Angels
From Heaven in answer rang
"Jerusalem, Jerusalem!
Lift up you gates and sing,
Hosanna in the highest.
Hosanna to your King!"
And then methought 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
"Jerusalem, Jerusalem!
Hark! How the Angels sing,
Hosanna in the highest,
Hosanna to your King!"
And once again the scene was chang'd
New earth there seem'd to be,
I saw the Holy City
Beside the tideless sea
The light of god was on its streets
The gates were open wide,
And all who would might enter
And no one was denied.
No need of moon or stars by night,
Or sun to shine by day,
It was the new Jerusalem
That would not pass away
"Jerusalem! Jerusalem
Sing for the night is o'er
Hosanna in the highest
Hosanna for evermore!"
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,
Methought the voice of Angels
From Heaven in answer rang
"Jerusalem, Jerusalem!
Lift up you gates and sing,
Hosanna in the highest.
Hosanna to your King!"
And then methought 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
"Jerusalem, Jerusalem!
Hark! How the Angels sing,
Hosanna in the highest,
Hosanna to your King!"
And once again the scene was chang'd
New earth there seem'd to be,
I saw the Holy City
Beside the tideless sea
The light of god was on its streets
The gates were open wide,
And all who would might enter
And no one was denied.
No need of moon or stars by night,
Or sun to shine by day,
It was the new Jerusalem
That would not pass away
"Jerusalem! Jerusalem
Sing for the night is o'er
Hosanna in the highest
Hosanna for evermore!"
The Holy City (song)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Holy City is a religious Victorian ballad dating
from 1892, with music by Michael Maybrick writing
under the alias Stephen Adams, with lyrics by Frederic Weatherly.
The song is recorded
in the African
Methodist Episcopal Church Review in 1911 as having been sung by an
opera singer awaiting trial for fraud in his cell while a group of men arrested
for drunk and disorderly conduct were before the judge. The men
were said to have dropped to the knees as the song began 'Last night I lay
a-sleeping, There came a dream so fair.', the lyrics contrasting with their
previous night's drunkenness. The song's conclusion resulted in the judge
dismissing the men without punishment, each having learned a lesson from the
song.[1]
The song is mentioned
in James Joyce's Ulysses, published 1918-1920.[2] It gained
renewed popularity when it was sung by Jeanette MacDonald in the 1936 hit filmSan Francisco.[3][4] The melody
formed the basis of a Spiritual titled Hosanna, which in turn was the
basis for the opening of Duke Ellington's "Black and Tan Fantasy".[5]
