There Is a Valley Lyrics

(muted)
(at full volume)
There is a valley where the trees stand tall
And an icy wind blows
Trees don't speak, but they speak to each other
Of a people long ago
When the soldiers came and took away
Their villages one by one
And the fury of that moment they felt
But could only silently look upon
There is a mountainside where sheep
Are grazing with their young
Sheep don't speak, but they speak to each other
Of a killing long ago
When the people came and sacrificed
Their children to the sun
And the fury of the moment they felt
But could only silently look upon
There is a hill near Jerusalem
That wild flowers grow upon
Flowers don't speak, but they speak to each other
Of a crucifixion
Guess because he said he was
The son of God
And the fury of that moment they felt
They could only silently look upon
Every city bar brawl, every fist fight
Every bullet from a gun
It's written in the palms, the palms of
The Holy One
Every city bar brawl, every fist fight
Every bullet from a gun
It's written in the palms, in the palms of
The Holy One
(repeat)
