We celebrate the wars we won |
|
The blood of history's ancient sons |
|
We followed Judah Maccabee |
|
We fought against iniquity |
|
We saved ourselves with help from one |
|
Who loves his children, everyone |
|
Everyone, everyone |
|
Everyone, everyone |
|
|
|
So now Jerusalem, you know that it's not right |
|

|
And then uproot the olive grove |
|
|
|
So now Jerusalem, you know that it's not right |
|
After all you've been through, you should know better than |
|
To become the wicked ones almighty god once saved you from |
|

So now Jerusalem, you know that it's not right |
