I Cannot Forget Jerusalem

Our walls are broken down
Our gates are burnt with fire
And the harp that we once played Now hang upon the willow
And can we sing the songs of Zion in a strange land }2x

I cannot forget Jerusalem
I cannot forget Jerusalem
I remember the city of God
I remember Zion

In Isaiah sixty two
For Zion sake I will not hold my peace
Andfor the sake of Jerusalem I will not rest
Until the righteousness go forth as brightness
And the salvation thereof
As a lamp that burneth

I cannot forget Jerusalem
I cannot forget Jerusalem
I remember the city of God
I remember Zion

When God delivered Zion
From the captivity of Babylon
Then was our mouth filled with laughter
And our tongue with singing
The Lord is doing great things for his people
That’s why we are glad
That’s why we rejoice

I cannot forget Jerusalem
I cannot forget Jerusalem
I remember the city of God
I remember Zion
