Lyrics

JAH RULE SALEM(Words and Music by Tennyson Walters)
God haste the second coming of ChristWhen finally we’ll end all the strifeMan subjected to God’s authorityA kin-ship of all humanityBut until that appointed time,Peace is a mountain we’ll never climb
There will never ever be any peaceUntil Jah Rule SalemThe wars will never, never, never ever ceaseUntil Jah rule SalemJerusalem, Jerusalem how I’ve cried for thee,That you’d abide with meJerusalem, Jerusalem how I’ve cried for thee,That you’d abide with me
The kings and leaders of this worldStrategies and plans they unfurlBut peace on earth they’ll never attainUnless God builds the house they labour in vainFor Jesus Christ is the only wayThat harmony can be relayed
There will never ever be any peaceUntil Jah Rule SalemThe wars will never, never, never ever ceaseUntil Jah rule SalemJerusalem, Jerusalem how I’ve cried for thee,That you’d abide with meJerusalem, Jerusalem how I’ve cried for theeThat you’d abide with me
Till the new Jerusalem comes downLasting peace will not aboundWhen you think there’s peace and safetySudden destruction is your realityUntil Jesus Christ, He returnsThe embers of war will forever burn(CHROUS OUT)
