Jerusalem,  Jerusalem  all roads  lead to you.
Jerusalem,  Jerusalem  your light  is shinning through.
And  you will show, show the way,  to all  who see it shine,
That  we can live, in peace,  in Jerusalem this  time.
The  walls will keep you in,  the  walls will keep you out.
The  gates are calling those,  who know  what it's about.
Jerusalem,  Jerusalem  all roads  lead to  you.
Jerusalem,  Jerusalem  your light  is shinning through.
And  you will show, show the way,  to all  who
 see it shine,
 That we can live,  in peace,  in Jerusalem this  time.
Jerusalem  is old,  Jerusalem  is new,
Jerusalem  can hold,  Moslem,  Christian, Jew.
In  Jerusalem, Jerusalem  all roads  lead to you.
Jerusalem,  Jerusalem  your light  is shinning through.
And  you will show, show the way,
 to all  who
 see it shine,
 That we can live,  in peace,  in Jerusalem this  time.
The  markets and the alleys,  the temples  and the tombs.
A  place for all believers,  it has  so many rooms.
In  Jerusalem, Jerusalem  all roads  lead to you.
Jerusalem,  Jerusalem  your light is  shinning through.
And  you will show, show the way,  to all  who
 see it shine,
That  we can live, in peace,  in Jerusalem this  time.
Yes,  we can live, in peace,  in Jerusalem this  time.
