words and music by William O. Richardson
O Zion
HaTikvah Bridge
Abraham
Such a bloody rugged cross you bear
Hine matov
A voice cries for a deafened world to hear
Your brother I will be O Israel
We both a
common father
share
Anthem for a chosen few to sing
To you shalom
Forever may your bell of freedom ring
My soul cries out to you O Israel
Homeland I have never seen
The sound of the
shofar
Shall herald the new dawn
The end's just
the beginning of the ages yet to come
Your children have been numbered
as the grains of
sand
O holy land
The mighty temple twice
destroyed will soon forever stand
Babylon is fallen she will never rise again
In her
place the sacred city
Hallelujah new Jerusalem
Hallelujah New Jerusalem
Hallelujah new Jerusalem
