Through the walls I hear the screams The preacher and the slave You can have your pound of flesh But you cannot take away, away, away
One day We'll build a better place One day A land we will embrace
This lamb will not lie down Till the crack of doom With feet of clay we'd roam, roam And make this kingdom come, come
One day We'll build a better place One day Upon the rocks of faith One day The stars will show the way
We can make this kingdom come Not by sword, not by gun New Jerusalem You can take away my skin But the fire still burns within New Jerusalem
We can make this kingdom come Not by sword, not by gun New Jerusalem You can take away my skin But the fire still burns within New Jerusalem Ohhhh, Jerusalem
We can make this kingdom come Not by sword, not by gun New Jerusalem You can take away my skin But the fire still burns within New Jerusalem
