I’ve got my God and you’ve got yours
living in a bomber’s world
I’ve got my bible, you’ve got yours
dreams like flags the wind unfurls
the stories roll down highways
God’s always at the wheel
nation against nation
all claim God’s golden seal
it all comes down to you and me
let’s sit down for a meal
We’ll dance in Jerusalem
Sing in Ramallah
Shout “halleluyah” from Kan-da-har
in every bleeding city
shattered in God’s name
we’ll plant the sacred tree of life
deep inside our brain
and then we’ll pray for rain
there’s no more time for us to wait
let’s step thru that last door
the people we’re so scared of now
won’t hate and fear us anymore
we’re immigrants in search of home
we’re all from somewhere else
we’re all as close as blood to bone
we need each other’s help
we’ll look inside our hearts and know
we’ve got to take a chance
