Joy was in my heart, alleluia
When I heard them say:
"Let us go to God’s house."
And now my feet are standing, alleluia
Within your gates, O Jerusalem
1. Jerusalem, most beautiful city
So strongly compact, alleluia
On you converge all the tribes of the Lord.
2. May his peace reign in your walls
Happiness and love in all your homes, alleluia
For you are in the house of the Lord, our God.
