Narrow Road

Lyrics written by me, based upon the description of New Jerusalem in Revelation 21-22. Performance generated by Suno AI. Images generated by Flux AI (as it turns out, not the best at understanding descriptions of God's city).

Note: there is debate about the city's size. The measurement of 12,000 stadia (approximately 14,000 miles) could be the length of one side, or the total square area, or the cubed area. I went with the largest interpretation, but that may well be incorrect.

Lyrics:

Narrow road
Take me home
To the God
To Whom I belong

To the gates
Made of pearl
Into the city
Made of gold

Where God has His Throne
Where we will never be alone
The vision John was shown
This place will be our home

The light of God will illuminate
The streets will be like glass
The walls will keep out every evil
Only the righteous are allowed to pass

Twelve thousand stadia long
Twelve thousand stadia wide
And for those who want to fly
It’s as high into the sky

The names of Israel’s tribes on the gates
The Disciples’ names on the walls
The angels guarding every entrance
The foundations set on precious stones

Jasper, sapphire, chalcedony
Emerald, sardonyx, sardius
Chrysolite, beryl, topaz
Chrysoprase, jacinth, amethyst

From the Throne
Will flow forth water
A living spring
A crystal river

Upon the banks
Will be the tree
From the Garden
We weren’t allowed to be

In this great city
There will be no night
No darkened alleys
No cause for fright

Kings will bring their glory here
And nothing bad will enter
Peace will reign across the earth
It will all be so much better

The biggest family
Ever known
All believers
Who ever roamed

All the brothers and sisters
In Jesus Christ
Everyone for whom
He paid the price

This our home
Forevermore
Narrow road
Take me here
