Oh John said the city was made four square
Walking in Jerusalem just like John
And he declared he'd meet me there
Walking in Jerusalem just like John

Chorus:
I want to be ready
I want to be ready
I want to be ready
Walking in Jerusalem just like John

Oh John on John didn't you say
Walking in Jerusalem just like John
That you'd be there on that great day
Walking in Jerusalem just like John

(Chorus)

Some came crippled and some came lame
Walking in Jerusalem just like John
Some came walking in Jesus name
Walking in Jerusalem just like John

(Chorus)

Now brother better keep your mind on the cross
Walking in Jerusalem just like John
Your feet might slip and your soul get lost
Walking in Jerusalem just like John

(Chorus)
