In the modern world, nothing is steadfast,
Nothing to hold on to, years go by so fast,
Need someone to talk to, to slow down the moment,
To help me forgive.
And the skylines alter with lifetimes,
Stare up at the night sky,
Tears in my eyes for whatever reason,
It's like I felt something, precious and pure.
And I come to the lord,
In my times of trouble,
Don't you know, my Jerusalem,
And I come to the lord,
In my times of trouble,
Don't you know, my Jerusalem.
I've been so down, Jesus it's trying,
I wanted to leave life but I'm scared of dying,
Been looking through fresh eyes,
I'm overcoming, demons and loneliness.
And the years are like rivers rolling over us,
Though my sins are like,
Mountains that can not be crossed,
Oh I know in my soul,
I believe in the blood that will save me now.
And I come to the lord,
In my times of trouble,
Don't you know, my Jerusalem,
And I come to the lord,
In my times of trouble,
Don't you know, my Jerusalem.
I've been so down, Jesus it's trying,
I wanted to leave life but I'm scared of dying,
I'm looking through fresh eyes,
I'm overcoming demons of loneliness.
