Twelve Gates to the City
(traditional)

Oh, what a beautiful city.
Oh, what a beautiful city.
Oh, what a beautiful city.
Twelve gates to the city--Hallelujah.

Three gates in the east,
Three gates in the west,
Three gates in the north,
Three gates in the south,
Twelve gates to the city--Hallelujah.

Who are those children dressed in red?
There's twelve gates to the city, Hallelujah.
Must be the children that Moses led
There's twelve gates to the city, Hallelujah.

My Jesus done just what He said.
There's twelve gates to the city, Hallelujah.
He healed the sick and He raised the dead.
There's twelve gates to the city, Hallelujah.
