Lyrics:

The olive trees that stand in silence
Upon the hills of time
To hear the voices of the city
As bells of evening chime
The shofar sounding from the temple
To call the world to prayer
The shepherd pauses in the valley
And peace is everywhere.

Jerusalem, Jerusalem
Forever young, forever old
My heart will sing your songs of glory
Jerusalem.
And far away beyond the desert
A thousand suns will glow
We shall be going down to Jordan
By way of Jericho.

My simple voice cannot acclaim thee
Too weak the words I choose
Jerusalem - if I forget thee
My right arm may I lose.
Jerusalem, Jerusalem
Forever young, forever old
My heart will sing your songs of glory
Jerusalem.
