Lyrics:

I was glad when they said unto me:
“Let us go to the house of the Lord.”

Now our feet are standing within your gates, O Jerusalem.
Jerusalem is built as a city that is at unity with itself;
To which the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord,
the assembly of Israel, to praise the name of the Lord.

I was glad when they said unto me:
“Let us go to the house of the Lord.”
