Jerusalem

Jerusalem, oh Flame of Hope

Metropolis of Peace

Citadel of Shining Shores

Daybreak of the East

Mother to Believers, all

The Sacred One is She

Watcher of the Temple Mount

and Keeper of The Key

Lift thine Sword, oh Warrior King

The world is set on Fire

The countless cries of tortured souls

reach to the Temple Spire

Arise to meet the Ancient One

Now Time with Space aligns

Emperors and Angels sing

unto the Prince of Lights

Jerusalem, oh Tower of Hope

Metropolis of Peace

Citadel of Shining Shores

Sunrise of the East!
