Yerushalayim

I've been to Jerusalem three times since arriving in Israel, and each time I am amazed by its complexity, beauty, richness, and diversity. Though religious tensions clearly exist, there is yet a special peace when roaming the streets on Shabbat...

Jerusalem breeze
Enfolding me
Wrapping me securely in the blanket of mercy
O Father, I find you here
In the city you have chosen to call Your own
I delight in the beauty and stillness
Your grace seeps into my soul
Filling my lungs with life
And my heart with songs of peace
Captivate me until I rest in You
Here, in Jerusalem
