Dawn breaks over Jerusalem
But again, peace has gone
Yet don’t we all want to say Amen
And pray for a new Babylon
Jerusalem, a place holy to many faces
Yet bullets, teargas, and rocks
Rain down on all races
If only we could turn back clocks
Jerusalem, where mosques, synagogues, and churches
Worship and pray together
Yet the city still just lurches
And all hope of peace continues too whither.
