1 A day is coming when the people will sing this song in the land of Judah:Our city is strong!God himself defends its walls!
2 Open the city gatesand let the faithful nation enter,the nation whose people do what is right.
3 You, Lord, give perfect peaceto those who keep their purpose firmand put their trust in you.
4 Trust in the Lord for ever;he will always protect us.
5 He has humbled those who were proud;he destroyed the strong city they lived in,and sent its walls crashing into the dust.
6 Those who were oppressed walk over it nowand trample it under their feet.
7 Lord, you make the path smooth for good people;the road they travel is level.
