198. I Was Glad

I was glad, I was glad,
I was glad when they said unto me:
Let us go into the house of the Lord;
I was glad, I was glad,
I was glad when they said unto me:
Let us go into the house, the house of the Lord.

Our feet shall stand within thy gates O Jerusalem
pray for the peace, for the peace of Jerusalem
Pray for the peace for the peace of Jerusalem,
They shall prosper, shall prosper that love thee,
They shall prosper that love thee.

Peace, peace, peace be within thy walls,
and prosperity, prosperity within thy palaces,
prosperity within thy palaces.

Sing praises, sing praises Hosanna, Hosanna
To the Lord, Jehovah for his goodness and mercy,
For He hath comforted, hath comforted his people.

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Amen;
Hallelujah, Amen,
Hallelujah, Amen.
