Arise Jerusalem

The Maltfriscans

And how I wish I could love you truly
And how I long to be totally, totally yours
And how yearn for unity divine,
Called to nothingness, yet everything is mine

Arise Jerusalem
Clothe yourself in purity
For the lord's day has come,
With the dawning of the sun
And we're destined to shine, like the morning star
And we're destined to shine, like the sun

And I wish I could walk with you for all time,
Hand in hand, spirits one, we would never be apart
Each futile dream, each sin, each broken promise
Would melt before the fire of your pure and sacred heart

Arise Jerusalem
Clothe yourself in purity
For the lord's day has come,
With the dawning of the sun
And we're destined to shine, like the morning star
And we're destined to shine, like the sun

And how I long to be servant of the most high
And how I yearn to be broken by your strength
My life will be but a song for the singer
My freedom's your now, I'm a captive of the truth

Arise Jerusalem
Clothe yourself in purity
For the lord's day has come,
With the dawning of the sun
And we're destined to shine, like the morning star
And we're destined to shine, like the sun
