Full Lyrics
CHORUS
Let us go rejoicing to the house of the Lord, our God.
VERSE 1
I rejoiced when they say to me, "Let's go to God's house."
Our feet are now standing within your gates, Jerusalem.
A strong fortress is the city of Jerusalem built.
It's there that the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord.
VERSE 2
For Israel's law it is there to praise the name of the Lord,
There were set the judgements throne of the house of David.
I pray for the peace of Jerusalem, Peace be to your homes!
May Peace reign in your walls, In your palaces peace!
VERSE 3
I say "peace unto you!" My brethren and friends,
For love of the house of God, I will ask for your good.
Glory be to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit,
both now and forever. Amen.
CODA
One thing I ask of you, O my Lord, is to live in your house all my life.
In your house all my lifetime; To marvel at your goodness, Lord.
