Twelve Gates To The City Lyrics - Live At Newport - Rev. Gary Davis

Oh, what a beautiful city 

Oh, what a beautiful city 

Oh, what a beautiful city 

Twelve gates to the city, hallelujah 

And it's oh, what a beautiful 

Oh, what a beautiful city 

Oh, what a beautiful city 

Twelve gates to the city, hallelujah 

There's three gates in the East 

There's three gates in the West 

There's three gates in the North 

There's three gates in the South 

That makes twelve gates to the city, hallelujah 

And it's, oh oh oh, what a beautiful 

Oh, oh, what a beautiful 

Twelve gates to the city, hallelujah 

God Almighty, what you talkin' 'bout? 

Oh, Lordy, yeah 

Oh Lord, what a beautiful city 

Oh, what a beautiful city 

Oh, what a beautiful city 

Twelve gates to the city, hallelujah 

If you see my dear old mother 

Won't you please tell her for me 

That I'm on my way to the city 

For the 'Meet me and Galilee' 

They've made twelve gates to the city, hallelujah 

Oh oh oh, what a beautiful 

Whoa, oh oh oh, what a beautiful city 

Twelve gates to the city, hallelujah 

Oh Lord, what a beautiful 

Whoa, oh Lord, what a beautiful city 

Twelve gates to the city, hallelujah
