In the East, in the cradle of the world
Lies the jewel desired of kinds
Even though it's just a diamond in the rough
There will come a time when it's light will shine
Don't you know, that city of Jerusalem
Is a beacon to the world
It holds the key that opens ancient prophecy
To the sons of grace, it's a holy place
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem
Pray for the peace of the world
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem
Pray for the peace of the world
And as we part
Don't allow your heart to fail
I'll come again for you one day
Keep your eyes looking to Jerusalem
As you rise each day
Don't forget to pray
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem
Pray for the peace of the world
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem
Pray for the peace of the world
In the East, in the cradle of the world
Lies the jewel desired of kinds
Even though it's just a diamond in the rough
There will come a time when it's light will shine
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem
Pray for the peace of the world
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem
Pray for the peace of the world
