bob carlisle - river of peace lyrics
she was a gorgeous little girl
only ten years old
with her mother’s smile and her father’s eyes
and she was taken way too soon
a life so full of promise, full of hope
but never realized
and i raise my fist in anger
and wonder why you take the tender hearts
and leave the rest of us behind
ours is not to question why
ours is just to live and try
to settle for the answer
whatever it might be
until we see you face to face
in another time and place
where the river of your peace runs free
now thirty years have come and gone
since his country shipped him home
with a silver star and a broken heart
more than his innocence was lost
to a complicated war
his baby brother didn’t make it back at all
and each night in silent anger
he tries to understand the sacrifice
and each night, he falls apart
ours is not to question why
ours is just to live and try
to settle for the answer
whatever it might be
until we see you face to face
in another time and place
where the river of your peace runs free
you said we’re all your precious children
but i must admit, sometimes we feel so small
we wonder if you’re there
or if you really care at all
until we see you face to face
in another time and place
where the river of your peace runs free
where the river of your peace runs free
