Revelation
[Opening Chorus] All things made new. The first earth passed away. All things made new. No sea of separation stays. The holy city comes from heaven, Prepared like a bride in view. The dwelling of God is with His people: All things made new. [Verse 1] A great voice sounded from the throne: No more death, no mourning cry, No more pain or former sorrow, No more tears in any eye. The fearful old order has vanished; The Alpha and Omega reign. Living water flows without price; Every promise stands made plain. [Refrain] New Jerusalem, Jasper walls and gates of pearl. Foundations bear apostles' names; Glory lights the world. No temple stands within her, For God and the Lamb are light. Nations walk beneath that splendor; No door closes through the night. [Verse 2] A river clear as crystal Runs from throne through city street. The tree of life bears twelvefold fruit; Its leaves make nations whole and meet. No curse remains upon creation. Servants see the holy face. The name rests on their foreheads; They reign through unending grace. [Final Chorus] All things made new. The morning star shines true. The Spirit and the bride say, "Come." Let every thirsty one come too. All things made new. No shadow hides the view. The Bible's road from garden lost Ends with the garden renewed.

About the passage

Revelation 21: God makes his dwelling with humanity

Revelation 21 does not end with humanity escaping upward. The decisive movement is Jerusalem coming down from God into a new heaven and new earth, and the repeated promise is that God will dwell "with" his people. The chapter then lets that presence reshape everything else. Tears, death, sorrow, crying, and pain belong to the former order. The city is both bride and place, carrying the names of Israel's tribes and the Lamb's apostles, and its cubic dimensions turn the whole settlement into sanctuary space. Its gold, jewels, and pearls recall Babylon's luxury while removing Babylon's merchants and prices. Most startlingly, Jerusalem has no separate temple and no need of ordinary lights because God and the Lamb fill those functions. Its gates stand open, nations bring their honor, and yet nothing defiling crosses the threshold. Welcome and holiness are held together rather than traded against each other.

Revelation 22: Life flows from the throne, and the prophecy returns to its hearers

Revelation 22 lets the final city breathe before turning the prophecy back toward the people hearing it. Life flows from the throne as a river, the tree bears fruit continually, the curse is gone, and God's servants see his face, bear his name, serve him, and reign without an announced end. The chapter then moves from vision to testimony. The sayings are again called "faithful and true," John is corrected once more for worshipping an angel, and the prophecy is deliberately left unsealed because "the time is at hand." Jesus identifies himself as the source of the testimony sent to the churches. The repeated invitation "Come" reaches both toward his coming and toward the thirsty who may take the water of life freely. A severe warning guards the book from addition or subtraction, but Revelation's last exchange is expectation answered by expectation, followed by grace. The final word after all the book's judgments is not another plague but the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ.
