I Belong To The Holy City
R. J. Brown, 1985, 1988


I belong to the Holy City;
I belong to the Light.
I can see the gold underneath my feet
As I walk along it shines up so bright.

This City is not of my blood;
It's by the blood of the Lamb,
Prepared for all eternity,
Paid for by the great I Am.

The Mighty God is Jesus Christ:
He became man so that He
Could shed His blood, perfect sacrifice,
To redeem a sinner like me.

I am sent to this lonely city;
I am sent as a light.
I can feel the cold as I walk the street,
Then a face looks up at me seeking right.

This city was bought by His blood;
It washes clean all sin.
His name is Jesus Christ, you see.
Come, my friend, now enter in.

The Mighty God is Jesus Christ:
He became man so that He
Could shed His blood, perfect sacrifice,
To redeem a sinner like me.
