Jerusalem, you set the world on fire
Jerusalem, city of desire
We’re watching you
What will you do
Oh Jerusalem

Jerusalem, the prophets call your name
Jerusalem, but they call out in vain
‘cause you don’t hear
How many tears must fall, Jerusalem

(bridge)
The armies come marching
They stand at your door
But still you refused to obey
Your children are scattered
All over the world
Yet their hearts are all drawn
To one place

Jerusalem, you are the wailing wall
Jerusalem, you break the hearts
Of all who dreams for you
What can we do
Oh Jerusalem

Jerusalem, Jesus call to you
Jerusalem, but you don’t listen
To the voice of Love
It cries from above
Oh Jerusalem

(repeat bridge)
Jerusalem, oh Jerusalem
So far away
I’m gonna pray for you
Jerusalem

Jerusalem, when will the bloodshed cease
Jerusalem, when will you live in peace
So far away
I’m gonna pray for you
Jerusalem
