lyrics

And there will be rejoicing
Here
When
All the bombs disappear.
But tonight it's raining
From the sky
Over Jerusalem.

Behind the wall
All the pages get wet
And you start to forget
What the Good Lord said.

It's hard to fight a feeling
When it's all
You've got left.
They've taken down your wall, and
You decide to send a prayer with your last breath.

Behind the wall
All the pages get wet
And you start to forget
What the Good Lord said.
Behind the wall
All the pages get wet
And you start to forget
What the Good Lord said:

That there would be rejoicing
Here
When
All the bombs disappear.
Till then, we sing
Our hymns to the Lord as
All we love gets wet.
Pray for peace, the true Jerusalem.
Pray for peace, the true Jerusalem.
