lyrics

Build the Wall Jerusalem
Words & music: Susan Booth Mack Snipes

I will stand upon my watch, a weapon in one hand.
Build the wall, Jerusalem, with God our guardian.
God has given me this work so none can stay my hand.
I will not come down nor cease ‘til the wall stands strong and grand.

Chorus
Build the wall, Jerusalem.
Build against all odds.
Build though fear and doubt assail;
Nothing threatens God.

I will stand upon my watch, building day and night,
Rallying my tired thought, tempted to take flight.
Apathy would stop me, mocking make me hide.
I will not come down nor cease til the wall stands true and right.

Chorus

I will stand upon my watch till the gates are fully set.
Not a chink in this defense--no place for hatred's threat.
Much would argue for delay till all the goals are met.
I will not come down nor cease till the wall stands fully blessed.

Chorus
