Let Us Go Rejoicing (Psalm 122) Joncas Lyrics

 Michael Joncas

Let us go rejoicing to the house of the Lord.


I rejoiced when I heard them say:

“Let us go to the house of the Lord.”

And now our feet are standing

within your gates, O Jerusalem


Jerusalem is a city built unity and strength

It is there, it is there

that the tribes go up,

the tribes of the Lord


For Israel's law is to praise God's name 

and there to give God thanks

There are set the judgment thrones,

for all of David's house


Pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

May those who love you prosper!

May peace ever reign within your walls,

and wealth within your buildings


For love of my family and love of my friends

I pray that peace be yours

For love of the house of the Lord, our God,

I pray for your good.
