Jerusalem My Prayers Came Alive

Jerusalem — Where My Prayers Came Alive Verse 1 I walked through gates of ancient stone, Where prophets wept and seeds were sown. The wind still whispers sacred flame, Yerushalayim calls my name. From shattered walls to rising praise, Through exile nights and promised days, Every tear the stones have cried Echoed hope that never died. Pre-Chorus For every promise Heaven gave, Still burns within this city brave. Chorus Jerusalem — where my prayers came alive, Where heaven and earth began to collide. Here in Your courts my heart revived, Jerusalem — where my prayers came alive. From Zion’s hill Your glory shines, A covenant written through all time. Here I stand with arms open wide — Jerusalem, where my prayers came alive. Verse 2 I pressed my hands against the wall, Felt generations in its call. Abraham’s faith, David’s song, The place where we have longed so long. Through fire, sword, and scattered years, Through whispered Shema soaked in tears, Still the Lion roars inside, Hope of Messiah glorified. Pre-Chorus The city of the Great King stands, Held forever in Your hands. Chorus Bridge If I forget you, let me fall, For you are written on my soul. Out of the dust You will arise, Bride adorned before His eyes. Peace will flow like rivers wide, Nations streaming to Your light. From broken stones to throne above, Jerusalem — restored in love. Tag (soft ending) Jerusalem… my heart’s desire, City of prayer, holy fire. Where every promise will survive — Jerusalem… my prayers alive.
