Peace in the Valley

Lookin' 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
Knowin' 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 any other, and it says
All men are brothers under the skin
Brothers under the skin

Lookin' 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
Comin' over the horizon
Brighter than any other, and it says
All men are brothers, all women are sisters
We're all related under the skin
Together under the skin

Peace in the valley just don't come
Peace in the valley just don't come
Peace in the valley
You know, peace in the valley, it's got to come
It just might come if we believe it'll come
If we're together, us, we're together under the skin
Peace in the valley, peace in the valley just might come
Peace in the valley's got to come
