[Lyric] Shaalu Shalom Yerushalayim Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem (Ted Pearce)

[Verse 1]
For the sake of my brothers and my friends
I will say, "peace be within you"
For the sake of the Lord our God
I will seek your blessing

And I was glad when they said to me
"Let us go unto the house of the Lord"
Our feet shall stand within your gates, O Jerusalem

[Chorus]
And I will pray for the peace of Jerusalem
I will pray for the peace of Jerusalem
Sha'alu shalom Yerushalayim
Yishlayu ohavayich
He will prosper those who love her

[Verse 2]
Jerusalem the holy city
Where God's pеople live togethеr
There the thrones of righteousness shall be set up
The throne of the house of David
[Chorus]
So I will pray for the peace of Jerusalem
I will pray for the peace of Jerusalem
Sha'alu shalom Yerushalayim
Yishlayu ohavayich
He will prosper those who love her, oh

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
So I will pray for the peace of Jerusalem
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem
Sha'alu shalom Yerushalayim
Yishlayu ohavayich
Yishlayu ohavayich
Yishlayu ohavayich
He will prosper those who love her
