There’s a tale | |
Told by soldiers | |
Of two sons and their father | |
As they sailed to old Palestine | |
True were these brothers | |
They sailed to bury their father | |
They would fight for Jerusalem | |
You will be meek when I am able | |
You’ll be the salt upon the table | |
When all is said and done could you | |
Somehow be sons of Abraham | |
I was told by a stranger | |
Of a young blood thrown to the desert | |
He united a people with his hands | |
In the wane to the crescent | |
He fed the lion to the pheasant | |
He would stride to the spring of Zam Zam | |
There’s a tale told by soldiers | |
A young boy taken to slaughter | |
He was saved by his father’s hand | |
He was prized and protected | |
And prince he was elected | |
He was to save the wolves with a lamb | |
There’s a tomb out by Jordan | |
Where two sides stop to adore him | |
As they fight for Jerusalem |
There' s a tale | |
Told by soldiers | |
Of two sons and their father | |
As they sailed to old Palestine | |
True were these brothers | |
They sailed to bury their father | |
They would fight for Jerusalem | |
You will be meek when I am able | |
You' ll be the salt upon the table | |
When all is said and done could you | |
Somehow be sons of Abraham | |
I was told by a stranger | |
Of a young blood thrown to the desert | |
He united a people with his hands | |
In the wane to the crescent | |
He fed the lion to the pheasant | |
He would stride to the spring of Zam Zam | |
There' s a tale told by soldiers | |
A young boy taken to slaughter | |
He was saved by his father' s hand | |
He was prized and protected | |
And prince he was elected | |
He was to save the wolves with a lamb | |
There' s a tomb out by Jordan | |
Where two sides stop to adore him | |
As they fight for Jerusalem |
