Peace In The Valley Lyrics

Looking out my window
Peace in the valley just don't come
Though I know that man's my brother
And that I'm the selfish one

The hour is getting later
It's time we had begun
Knowing something's one thing
But the race must still be run

Take care of little jealousies
And talk that kills for fun
And hold your heart in readiness
It's so easy to come undone

But I think I saw a brand new light
Coming over the horizon
Brighter than all the others
And it says, "All men are brothers under the skin
Brothers under the skin"

Looking out my window
Peace in the valley just don't come
Though I know that she's my sister
And that I'm the selfish one

And I look at all the people
And I love the ones I can
And I wonder if the dream will be
Or be turned into sand

Still I think I saw a brand new light
Coming over the horizon
Brighter than all the others
And it says, "All men are brothers under the skin
Brothers under the skin"

Peace in the valley just don't come
Peace in the valley just don't come
Peace in the valley just don't come
Peace in the valley just don't come

Peace in the valley just don't come
Peace in the valley just don't come
Peace in the valley just don't come
Peace in the valley just don't come
