Peace Unknown By Man -Jeff Weaver, Jim Stack, Rarely Herd Music, BMI
[Verse]
Thunder in the regiment, no thoughts of coming things
Anticipating orders before the brass would ring.
Knowing well the cannons will spit blood out on the ground.
Flowing like a raging stream where mercy can't be found.
[Chorus]
I'll pray this war would end
From the first stone thrown in Baltimore, till then
We can't seem to comfort where we stand
There's a peace unknown by man
a peace unknown by man
[Verse]
A soldier stood before me and I had him in my sights
I watched him fold before me with fear deep in his eyes.
Knowing I'd regret this deed before I sleep tonight
Soldier, please forgive me, for it was either you or I.
[Chorus]
[Verse]
Lying on my back I wipe the sulphur smoke and tears
Powder and a lead ball mark the end to this worlds fears
Thru blinding light the soldier kneels and reaches for my hand
To let me walk beside him to a peace unknown by man
[Chorus]
