[Verse 1] Blue hour over stone and cedar Lanterns bloom on the higher streets Quiet pulse of the sleeping houses Name above every name repeats Silver air, and the walls remember Footsteps, vows, and a thousand prayers You are here in the silent chambers Holding fast what the night can’t spare [Pre-Chorus] Your fame runs out like rivers to the coastlines Justice in your right hand, tender and bright [Chorus] I walk these walls tonight, counting every light Towers steady in the hush, fearless in your sight Songs rise in the square, carried on the breeze You keep the city safe—now and always [Verse 2] Kings came near like a moving weather Saw your strength and their courage broke Cold wind turned and they fled in terror All their thunder dissolved like smoke In your courts we recall your kindness Honeyed wine on a waiting tongue East and west learn your holy likeness Every bell has your name it rung [Pre-Chorus] Your fame runs out like rivers to the coastlines Justice in your right hand, tender and bright [Chorus] I walk these walls tonight, counting every light Towers steady in the hush, fearless in your sight Songs rise in the square, carried on the breeze You keep the city safe—now and always [Bridge] Circle the paths, trace every corner Count every spire in the moonlit air Tell it to children, tell it again: He is our God—our guide forever [Chorus] I walk these walls tonight, counting every light Towers steady in the hush, fearless in your sight Songs rise in the square, carried on the breeze You keep the city safe—now and always [Outro] Beautiful height, joy of the nations Under your shade we rest and sing
