Jerusalem .....

[FONT='Times New Roman','serif'] [/FONT][FONT='Times New Roman','serif']
Jerusalem, jewel on a Tor
Citadel of peace
Mother of children loathing war
When will your nightmare cease

Bless Abraham God’s chosen seed
Bless Jacob, Isaac too
Pray Heaven will meet their children’s need
Each day God grants anew

Bless the gem of The Promised Land
Her streams her mounds her dales
Until her Saviour comes to stand
And still her stormy gales

Bless Israel’s scarred troubled zone
Each anxious ailing soul
Pray God would hear each heartfelt groan
To heal and make her whole

Bless the city of Jesse’s son
Raise hands with eyes above
Till all her trials on earth are won
Bestow amazing love

Bless Jacob’s mounds of Galilee
Each vale round Jordan’s flow
The sun baked soil around the sea
Life’s diverse fruits to grow

Bless the ancients, God’s chosen new
Pray wisdom brings release
Uniting gentile saints and Jew
Forever twined in peace

Bless the town where tears were cried
City of woeful pain
The hill where once her Saviour died
To rise her King to reign…...[/FONT]
