Ancient city walls,
Rich and fertile fields.
A place of past and present,
Where history is revealed.
Walk the paths of old,
A land beyond compare,
The shofar sounds the call
For people everywhere.
My heart will not forget
To always speak your name
I'll sing the songs of Zion
With tender heart proclaim
The longing of the ages
Within the heart of man
The crossroads of the world
In God's eternal plan.
Israel, Israel,
Eternal land of promise
Desire of my heart
Israel, Israel, a land that's like no other
Let all the earth proclaim.
That when you stand on Holy Ground
You'll never be the same.
God moved the heart of men
Who in turn moved the world
After years of yearing
Zion was unfurled
A homeland for God's people
Designed by his own hand
The hope of generations
Forever it will stand
Israel, Israel,
Eternal land of promise
Desire of my heart
Israel, Israel, a land that's like no other
Let all the earth proclaim.
That when you stand on Holy Ground
You'll never be the same.
From the heights of Mount Herman
To the depths of the dead sea
From the beaches of the coastline
To the shores of Galilee
From the Jordan Valley
Up to Jerusalem
The land itself proclaims
You'll never be the same
...The same
Israel, Israel,
Eternal land of promise
Desire of my heart
Israel, Israel, a land that's like no other
Let all the earth proclaim.
That when you stand on Holy Ground
You'll never be the same.
