I woke up this mornin' and none of the news was goodnAnd death machines were rumblin' 'cross the ground where Jesus stoodnAnd the man on my TV told me that it had always been that waynAnd there was nothin' anyone could do or saynnAnd I almost listened to himnYeah, I almost lost my mindnThen I regained my senses againnAnd looked into my heart to findnnThat I believe that one fine day all the children of AbrahamnWill lay down their swords forever in JerusalemnnWell maybe I'm only dreamin' and maybe I'm just a foolnBut I don't remember learnin' how to hate in Sunday schoolnBut somewhere along the way I strayed and I never looked back againnBut I still find some comfort now and thennnThen the storm comes rumblin' innAnd I can't lay me downnAnd the drums are drummin' againnAnd I can't stand the soundnnBut I believe there'll come a day when the lion and the lambnWill lie down in peace together in JerusalemnnAnd there'll be no barricades thennThere'll be no wire or wallsnAnd we can wash all this blood from our handsnAnd all this hatred from our soulsnnAnd I believe that on that day all the children of AbrahamnWill lay down their swords forever in Jerusalem
