Revelation 21 · Grade 3

The Holy City

Name Date

Read the Story

John saw a new heaven and a new earth. He saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God. It was as lovely as a bride on her wedding day.

A loud voice said, God’s dwelling is with people. He will wipe away every tear from their eyes. Death will be no more; neither will there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain any more. God said, Behold, I am making all things new. He said, I will give freely to him who is thirsty from the spring of the water of life.

The city shone with God’s glory. Its gates were made of pearls. Its street was pure gold. It did not need the sun or the moon. God’s glory gave it light, and the Lamb was its lamp.

Memory Verse

“The city has no need for the sun or moon to shine, for the very glory of God illuminated it and its lamp is the Lamb.”

Revelation 21:23 (WEB)
