No Christmas celebrations in Bethlehem this year
Now the river Jordan is overflowing with sorrow and tears

I can hear the sirens singing their melancholy song
Oh mother Jerusalem where did we go wrong

Oh sweet Jerusalem the source of righteousnes wisdom and light
Where are all your holy pilgrims kneeling before you tonight

Once the word was love from the ancient teachers and preachers
Mother Jerusalem where are now all the peace seekers

The Bible the Torah and the Koran
Words of God twisted by the  conceits of man

Timeless messages carried on the deserts breeze
Now all I can hear are the sounds of desperate pleas

Oh mother Jerusalem why o why
Must your son's and daughter's continue to die

Why can't we live together all as one
Under one god all under the same sun

Oh Jerusalem the city full of holy ghosts
Two thousand years later still fighting to see who loves him the most

Please shine your light from the darkness
Oh mother Jerusalem the source of righteousnes wisdom and light

May the words of love and peace for all once again shine bright
