    SOMEWHERE OVER THERE

    Somewhere

    i stand silently before the father

    waiting for him to rescue me.

    for salvation comes from him alone.

    yes he alone is my rock

    my rescuer

    my defense and fortress.

    why then should i be tense with fear

    when trouble comes

     

        psalm 62..verses 1 and 2

     

    somewhere over there

    is a place where souls are free

    glory shines from within

    and the  earth rises to face

    the  mourning son

    where hearts in turmiol

    are quieted from trouble and pain

    renewed with the promise

    of hope and cheer

     

    brother

    somewhere  over there

    is a hill upon which you can 

    touch the face of heaven

    as she silently cries

    in the morning mist

    she cries tears of happiness

    yes she does

    for on that vast and untouched plain

    with the love of god nothing

    can compare

     

    my sister

    beautiful  sister

    somewhere over there

    is a filed of grain

    that whistles in the wind

    and the taunts of enemies

    cant hurt your tender heart

    where life passes swiftly

    yet every memory is so very clear

    as we meditate upon the gift of love

    god prepared  

    for you and me

     

    somewhere over there

    young lions roar in the evening dusk

    yet are still dependent upon the wisdom

    of the faithful father

    where hands are open wide

    ready to receive bountiful  provisions

    and when all are  full

    there is plenty left to spare

    for our hungry brothers and sisters

     

    somewhere over there

    praises  are being sung  in tribute

    to the spirit of mankind

    where the blood stone  of a mans sacrifice

    becomes the capstone for  a mighty arch

    and we dont have to compromise 

    our dignity 

    to climb heavens  stairs

     

    somehwere

    in the name of the beneficent  and merciful

    somewhere over there

    good men are are applauded

    in their quest for righteousness

    and evil men finally

    must bear the burdens of their sins

    where  when world conflict arises

    no nation is victorious

    until they turn the weapons of warfare

    into ploughshares

     

    yes indeed

    somewhere

    i do believe

    somehwere over there

    we have a view of a magestic ocean

    upon the shore people meditate

    to eradicate the hate that lies within

    the demons deceptions

    where the sons of 

    abraham

    the prophet muhammad and jesus the christ

    finally decleare

    to live as one

     

    somewhere  over there

    determination to be wise 

    is the first step towards wisdom

    where the hissing of summer lawns

    creates a haze that dims 

    the afternoon  suns glare

    and you and i prepare

    to live as one

    to love as one

    to die as one

    and to be reborn as one

     

    i do believe it is 

    somewhere

    somewhere over there
