The Gates Of Zion

Let the gates of Zion
Let the gates of Zion
Let the gates of Zion
Be open to You
Be open to You

My walls are battered and broken
My gates have burned to rust
My wounds are angry and open
Dreams lie in the dust
And foreign kings have plundered me
And dragged away my heart
But there is a word of prophecy
The King of love will come to me

O Lord You’ve seen my affliction
You’ve heard my cries of fear
My eyes will see Your salvation
Redemption’s drawing near
My Shepherd-King You comfort me
And wipe away my tears
There is a word of prophecy
The King of kings will reign in me

Call out to the holy city
Your warfare is through
And the Father who loves you Jerusalem
Has a double portion for you
