Orphaned Land - New Jerusalem lyrics

[Orphaned Land - New Jerusalem lyrics]

Saracen blood spilled as crosses
Are rising high men giving their lives
For the Holy Sea they die
Walls surround this golden city like
A crown of thorns
Will the wailing ever cease
Will we forever mourn?
Behold memories of wars
Are rising as we're building
The New Jerusalem
Men and children toil in the blazing sun
Mortar and brick
No walls between father and son
These green and pleasant fields that surround
The city once apart that now is one
Bygone crusades and wasted lives
Are gone as we're breathing the New Jerusalem
