While I walked ten miles down a twelve mile road
Shine Jerusalem, shine

And I've been walking with a heavy load
Shine Jerusalem, shine

But the Good Lord's gentle, and he talks to me
He says two more miles and you're gonna be free

Shine Jerusalem, shine
Oh Shine Jerusalem, shine
Yes I'm going to heaven most any old time
Oh Shine Jerusalem, shinе

Oh blisters are burning on my tired feet
Shinе Jerusalem, shine

But the angels are singing and they sound so sweet
Shine Jerusalem, shine

Go and carve my marker from a block of stone
Just say old Jason well he's done gone home

Shine Jerusalem, shine
Oh Shine Jerusalem, shine
Yes I'm going to heaven most any old time
Oh Shine Jerusalem, shine
Ain't taken no shovel, Ain't taken no hoe
Cause there ain't no work on that glory road

Shine Jerusalem, shine
Oh Shine Jerusalem, shine
Yes I'm going to heaven most any old time
Oh Shine Jerusalem, shine
Yes I'm going to heaven most any old time
Oh Shine Jerusalem, shine
Shine, Jerusalem, shine
