Jerusalem

I stood upon a rock
on your holy mountains,
Beholding your beauty
overcame me like a song.

My cup overflows with joy,
hearing sounds of prayers and bells,
My faith was once weak, but
Now you make me strong.

Here I am
with my arms to the sky,
Saying my prayers
to the One up on high.

I can't forget
you, Jerusalem,
I can't forget you, Jerusalem.
If I forget you,
I forget more'n (=than?) I can.
I can't forget you, Jerusalem.

The road to peace has been rough,
You were built compact and tough,
Christians, Jews and Muslims -
their prayers to God go on high.

Rejoice, house of Judah,
The lion is in Zion,
breaking every chain
to set the captives free.

So here I am with my voice and the sound
Walking your streets like a king without a crown

I can't forget
you, Jerusalem,
I can't forget you, Jerusalem.
If I forget you,
I forget more'n I can.
I can't forget you, Jerusalem.

Up in the hills
Men and angels sing
Oh, what a beauty
when the Kingdom comes.

I'll say it again and again:
This time has come for us
To rise and build that control of Babylon.

So here I am with the voice and the sound,
Walking your streets like a king who's found his crown.

I can't forget
you, Jerusalem,
I can't forget you, Jerusalem.
If I forget you,
I forget more'n I can.
I can't forget you, Jerusalem.

Though you sit in isolation,
you're under whole world's inspiration,
I can't forget you, Jerusalem.

May peace be within your walls,
Amen,
I can't forget you, Jerusalem.
I will answer every call
As-Salamu Alaykum
I can't forget you, Jerusalem.
