Refrain:

I rejoiced when they said to me:

“Let us go unto the house of the Lord!”

Standing there, O Jerusalem,

In your gates unto the house of the Lord.

Look upon Jerusalem

The city now restored.

Here the tribes of Yahweh come

As one unto the Lord.

Refrain:

I rejoiced when they said to me:

“Let us go unto the house of the Lord!”

Standing there, O Jerusalem,

In your gates unto the house of the Lord.

As He ordered Israel

They come to praise His name.

Here where courts of justice

The courts of David reign.

Pray for peace, Jerusalem,

Prosperity at home

Peace inside your city walls

That comes from God alone.

Refrain:

I rejoiced when they said to me:

“Let us go unto the house of the Lord!”

Standing there, O Jerusalem,

In your gates unto the house of the Lord.

Since we are God’s people

I say, “Peace be to you.”

May the God who dwells in us

Your happiness renew.

Refrain:

I rejoiced when they said to me:

“Let us go unto the house of the Lord!”

Standing there, O Jerusalem,

In your gates unto the house of the Lord.

Unto the King eternal,

Unto the King immortal,

Unto the King invisible,

The only wise God, the only wise God.

Now unto the King eternal,

Unto the King immortal,

Unto the King invisible,

The only wise God, the only wise God.

O, unto the King be glory and honor,

Unto the King forever,

Unto the King be glory and honor

Forever and ever

Amen.  Amen.
