1
I woke up this mornin', none of the news was good
2
The death machines was rollin' 'cross the ground where Jesus stood
3
The man on my TV told me it's always been that way
4
And there was nothin' anyone could do or say
5
And I almost listened to him and I almost lost my mind
6
Then I regained my senses again, I looked into my heart to find
7
That I believe that one fine day a children of Abraham
8
Will lay down their swords forever in Jerusalem
9
Maybe I'm only dreamin', maybe I'm just a fool
10
But I don't remember learnin' how to hate in Sunday school
11
Somewhere along the way I strayed, I never looked back again
12
Ah, but I still find a comfort now and then
13
And the storm comes a-rumblin' in and I cannot lay me down
14
The drums are drummin' again and I cannot stand the sound
15
But I believe there'll come a day when the lion and the lamb
16
Will lie down in peace together in Jerusalem
17
There'll be no barricades then and there'll be no wire or walls
18
We can wash all this blood from our hands
19
And all this hatred from our souls
20
And I believe that on that day all the children of Abraham
21
Will lay down their swords forever in Jerusalem
22
Lay down their swords forever in Jerusalem
