Lyrics

REFRAIN:
When the world is rising to the call,
We will hear the trumpets from afar.
And like old Jericho of long ago,
Down will come the walls,
Once and for all.
VERSE 1:
O come on everyone,
Come on up to Jerusalem
And tell the Lord why we lost sight
Of the Way, the Truth, and the Life.
There are walls like hate and injustice
That blind us to love and forgiveness.
So come up to Jerusalem and talk down all these walls.
VERSE 2:
O come on everyone,
Come on up to the house of the Lord,
And pray for peace everyday
And let walls be forgiven away.
Walls like disbelief and indifference
That leave us looking the other way.
So come up to Jerusalem and pray away these walls.
VERSE 3:
O come on one and all,
Come on home to Jerusalem,
Where Christ welcomes everyone
To watch the walls falling one-by-one.
When his light and love come shining through,
We find our faith like the tried-and-true.
So come home to Jerusalem: the Way, the Truth, the Life.
