I woke up this mornin' and none of the news was good
And death machines
were rumblin' 'cross the ground where Jesus stood
And the man on my TV told me that it had
always been that way
And there was nothin' anyone could do or say
And I almost
listened to him
Yeah, I almost lost my mind
Then I regained my senses again
And
looked into my heart to find
That I believe that one fine day all the children of Abraham
Will lay down their swords forever in Jerusalem
Well maybe I'm only dreamin' and
maybe I'm just a fool
But I don't remember learnin' how to hate in Sunday school
But
somewhere along the way I strayed and I never looked back again
But I still find some comfort
now and then
Then the storm comes rumblin' in
And I can't lay me down
And the
drums are drummin' again
And I can't stand the sound
But I believe there'll come a
day when the lion and the lamb
Will lie down in peace together in Jerusalem
And
there'll be no barricades then
There'll be no wire or walls
And we can wash all this blood
from our hands
And all this hatred from our souls
And I believe that on that day all
the children of Abraham
Will lay down their swords forever in Jerusalem | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
