Jerusalem Stone

I've seen strangers raising flags

Seen you dressed in ashen rags

Seen 'em all turn around

Just like you, I hold my ground

But I stand quiet, I stand still

Like a rock throughout the ages

I'm just a stone from your home

I'm Jerusalem stone

And I've waited all this time

To see you in this land of mine

And I've waded through the ugliness and grime

To see you in this land of mine

I've seen you night, I've seen you day

I've seen you fight, I've seen you walk away

Soon your lights will be glowing

Your milk and honey flowing

But I stand quiet, I stand still

Like a rock throughout the ages

I'm just a stone from your home

I'm Jerusalem stone

And I've waited all this time

To see you in this land of mine

And I've waded through the ugliness and grime

To see you in this land of mine

Etched your name upon my spine

Way before this thing called time

I fell twice, but I rise once more

Made of stone, I don't cry no more

Etched your name upon my spine

Way before this thing called time

I fell twice, but I rise once more

Made of stone, I don't cry no more

And I've waited all this time

To see you in this land of mine

And I've waded through the ugliness and grime

To see you in this land of mine

And I've waited all this time

To see you in this land of mine

And I've waded through the ugliness and grime

To see you in this land of mine

But I stand quiet, I stand still

I'm Jerusalem stone
