I looked up from the Jordan
What did I see?
A band of angels came for me
They pulled me from the water
We floated through the trees
Clad in shimmering polar fleece
And we floated over all the fields and the bridge
And we almost scraped our naked heels on the ridge
The angels drew their knives, and alighted from the hills
In the slumbering town below, all was still
As the ghosts of the people were given away
A black-sailed ship left the quay
I said "hoppla, hoppla, hoppla" alles die ganze nachte
I said "hoppla, hoppla, hoppla" as we sailed off
Now we are far away
Gone to other worlds that your hands have made
Where everything is new
Everything is new
All the world is new
All the world is new
When we started over, the air just as still
A night train rolled through brown hills
And down to the valley, like an iron spear, hurled
By a shapeless hand into a new world
And the tracks ran over all the fields and the bridge
All the night was silent, calm, and bright along the ridge
Now we can begin again
We get born, and enter in
To a world that's new
Everything is new
All the world is new
All the world is new
