C               Am
We celebrate the wars we've won
                G
The blood of history's ancient sons
C               Am
We followed Judah Maccabee
                G
We fought against inequity
Am              C
We saved ourselves with help from one
                G
Who loves his children, every one
Am      G
Every one, every one
Am      G
Every one, every one

Am      C
So now Jerusalem
G               Am
You know that it's not right
G
After all you've been through
Am
You should know better than to become
C               Am              G
The wicked ones almighty God once saved you from

C               Am
The lessons we should learn from all
                G
The fighting in the days of old
C               Am
When providence bestowed divine
                G
The sanctuary purified
Am              C
Let light encircle all you hold
                G
And don't uproot the olive grove

Am      C
So now Jerusalem
G               Am
You know that it's not right
G
After all you've been through
Am
You should know better than to become
C               Am              G
The wicked ones almighty God once saved you from

Am      C
So now Jerusalem
G               Am
You know that it's not right
G
After all you've been through
Am
You should know better than to become
C               Am              G
The wicked ones almighty God once saved you from.
