Vard Sisters I Rejoiced
Refrain
I rejoiced when I heard them say:
let us go to the house of the Lord.
I rejoiced when I heard them say:
let us go to the house of the Lord.
1. I rejoiced when they said to me:
“Let us go to the house of the Lord today.”
And now we stand within your gates;
my heart is glad and I will sing with joy.
2. Strongly built is Jerusalem,
strongly built with unity and love.
And it is there that the tribes go up,
go up to the mountain of our God.
3. For the love of friends and fam’ly,
may the peace of God be with you always.
For the love of God’s house,
I will pray for you, will pray for your good.
