Lyrics
Centuries have shown our fate
Come the tyrants with their blood and hate
The scroll from which we teach and read
To them is but a poison seed
And the rockets fly with roots so cold
So cold
And the hatred's hurled with stones so old
So old
Shots ring out and seasons turn
Plans of peace begin to fade and burn
And oh six million aint enough for he
They're pounding at your gates my sweet Jerusalem
Oh Jerusalem
Oh Jerusalem
Jerusalem oh Jerusalem
Oh Jerusalem
Oh Jerusalem
Oh Jerusalem
City of my heart
City of my soul
City of the truest truth of all
