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 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
looked into
my heart to find
And 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
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
