Jerusalem Of Gold
Oh, Jerusalem of gold And of light and of bronze I am the lute for all your songs Oh, Jerusalem of gold And of light and of bronze I am the lute for all your songs The mountain air is clear as water The scent of pines around Is carried on the breeze of twilight And tinkling bells resound The trees and stones there softly slumber, A dream enfolds them all So solitary lies the city And at its heart a wall Oh, Jerusalem of gold And of light and of bronze I am the lute for all your songs Oh, Jerusalem of gold And of light and of bronze I am the lute for all your songs But as I sing to you, my city And you with crowns adorn I am the least of all your children Of all the poets born Your name will scorch my lips forever Like a seraph's kiss, I'm told If I forget thee, golden city Jerusalem of gold Oh, Jerusalem of gold And of light and of bronze I am the lute for all your songs Oh, Jerusalem of gold And of light and of bronze I am the lute for all your songs
