Beneath the smoke of an angry sky
Ready to kill, ready to die
Simple soldiers defending the shore
Such a natural talent for war
Fight for the children, fight for the wife
Take up the sword and lay down the life
Praying for courage and strength from above
Such a natural instinct of love
Somewhere between the wrong and the right
We’re fighting for love and loving the fight
We hope for the healing and we ponder the plight
But won’t it be a beautiful sight
When the lion lays down with the lamb
Brothers and sisters walk hand in hand
Love goes blind and madness will cease
When every knee bows to the Prince of Peace
Every knee bows to the Prince of Peace
Such confusing and troubled times
So little justice, so many crimes
The old and the wise, the passionate youth
We’re all searching for reason and truth
Somewhere beyond the angering sea
There’s a shoreline of hope and sweet harmony
Where the soul lives forever, forgiven and free
What a wonderful place it will be
When the lion lays down with the lamb
Brothers and sisters walk hand in hand
Love goes blind and madness will cease
When every knee bows to the Prince of Peace
Every knee bows to the Prince of Peace, yeah
Joy will abound and every heart will soar
A light’s gonna shine we’ve never seen before
Armies will lay down their weapons of war
And no one’s gonna fight anymore
When the lion lays down with the lamb
Brothers and sisters
They’re gonna walk hand in hand
Love goes blind and the madness can cease
When every knee bows to the Prince of Peace
Every knee bows to the Prince of Peace
(Every knee will bow)
Every knee bows to the Prince of Peace
Every knee bows
Every knee will bow
