In The Eyes Of Love ©2004 Jon T. Howard

We rode the ridge all night
We crossed the river at dawn
By the pale moonlight
We said the Lord's Prayer and 23rd Psalm
Brothers in arms united as one
Willing to lay down our lives for the cause
Across the world where the lines were drawn
Between the crescent moon and the cross

And when the kingdom comes
We'll all stand equal and we'll be judged
In the eyes of love
No man greater than another one

Only a child when she watched her father
Die in her mother's arms
From that day on she carried the pain
So deep within her heart
At seventeen she strapped on a bomb
And slipped past the check point guards
On a crowded bus she said her prayers
And then she blew it all apart

And when the kingdom comes
We all stand equal and we'll be judged
In the eyes of love
No man greater than another one

And the dogs of war
Never stop barking
While the children of our children pay for it all
And the ashes we bury the truth in
Is the shaky ground we build tomorrow on




The car came out of nowhere
In the Al Anbar Province night
The shots rang out in hail of fire
With the fury of when lightening strikes

And when the kingdom comes
We all stand equal and we'll be judged
In the eyes of love
No man greater than another one
In the eyes of love
In the eyes of love
In the eyes of love
In the eyes of love
