Lyrics:


I was glad when they said to me, come to the house of the Lord
Standing here at your gates again, into the courts of praise

Up to Jerusalem: up to Jerusalem
Up to Jerusalem
(Into the courts of praise, into the courts of praise)

Jerusalem, Peace, Adonai Sar Shalom
Blessings be yours, God’s Peace within your walls

City of Praise, where the tribes shout Hallel
We lift our voice to the God of Israel
