"Pray For Peace" Lyrics

In the East, in the cradle of the world
Lies the jewel desired of kings
Even though it's just a diamond in the rough
There will come a time when its 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

Pray for Jerusalem
Pray for the world
Pray for Jerusalem
Pray for the world

In the East, in the cradle of the world
Lies the jewel desired of kings
Even though it's just a diamond in the rough
There will come a time when its light will shine

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem
Pray for the peace of the world

Pray for Jerusalem
Pray for the world
Pray for Jerusalem
Pray for the world

Pray for Jerusalem
(Oh, you gotta pray)
Pray for the world
Pray for Jerusalem
(Oh, for Jerusalem)
Pray for the world
