Jerusalem

Jerusalem, Jerusalem,
Zion, city of the Great King,
Fair one,
Jerusalem, Jerusalem,
Take heart, lift your voice up and sing.

My heart burns for you!
Know that I'll return to you,
Beautiful City of Truth,
The Lord's Holy Mountain.

Jerusalem, Jerusalem,
I yearn and pray for your peace.
Shalom,
Jerusalem, Jerusalem,
Someday all the fighting will cease.

Clothe yourself in power;
Put on garments of splendor.
Shake off your dust; rise, and sit enthroned,
O Zion, Holy City.

(instrumental interlude)


Jerusalem,
City of the Great King...

Jerusalem,
Lift your voice up and sing...

Jerusalem,
I will pray for your peace...

Jerusalem,
Yes, I'll pray for your peace...
