Billy Gilman - Peaceable Kingdom lyrics
A leopard with a harmless kid lay down And not one savage beast was seen to frown The wolf did with the lamb can dwell in peace His grim carnivorous nature there did cease The lion with the fatling awn did move And a little child was leading them in love Long ago there was a young painter Who had a dream that every creature came And stood assembled by his side And he painted the sight that had sweetened his night For the one hundred times before he died A kid lion and a snake and a child Wide-eyed and formal and smiling like the sun had stopped And time had ceased to move And the wolf and the lamb Came and ate from his hand And a man-child was leading them in love Friend have you seen all the lines and the spaces The colors that the old painter sees In the peaceable kingdom that shines in the faces Of people from more gentle times than these I find myself adrift these days And endless maze of ends and ways And worlds seem so crazy to be here But look away look away Back or forward from today To the visions of either fools or sears Oh my friend have you seen all the lines and the spaces The colors that the old painter sees In the peaceable kingdom that shines in the faces Of people from more gentle times than these Such a beautiful place Full of joy full of grace It was bathed in our saintly yellow lie To what learning to know that such things can't be so He could only believe that they might Oh my friend have you seen all the lines and the spaces The colors that the old painter sees In the peaceable kingdom that shines in the faces Of people from more gentle times than these Friend have you seen all the lines and the spaces The colors that the young painter sees In the peaceable kingdom that shines in the faces Of people from more gentle times than these |
