T welve hundred miles it's l ength and breadth that f our square c ity s tands
It's gem set walls of J asper shine they're not m ade by h uman h ands
One h undred miles it's g ates are wide ab undant entrance t here
With f ifty miles of e lbow r oom on e ither s ide to s pare
When the g ates swing wide on the other side just bey ond the sunset s ea
There'll be r oom to spare as we enter there
There'll be r oom for you and r oom for me
For the g ates are wide on the other side where the f airest flowers b loom
On the r ight hand and on the l eft hand fifty m iles of e lbow r oom
Somet imes I'm cramped and crowded here and I l ong for elbow r oom
Now I long to reach for altitude where the f airest flowers b loom
It w on't be long bef ore I pass int o that city f air
With f ifty miles of e lbow r oom on e ither s ide to s pare
Oh when the g ates swing wide on the other side just bey ond the sunset s ea
There'll be r oom to spare as we enter there
There'll be r oom for you and r oom for me
For the g ates are wide on the other side where the f airest flowers b loom
On the r ight hand and on the l eft hand fifty m iles of e lbow r oom
