Three Brothers
from AirstreamThree Brothers
All three brothers loved their father, but he's brought them here today
To see these papers and these lawyers, and divide the old estate
All three feel that they're the favorite, he loves each of them the best
But these documents he gave them, will now put them to the test
So they open all the writings, that will prove the rightful heir
To this home that they remember, and the right to settle there
Their own sister is a prisoner, they don't see her face to face
They've not heard her song of beauty, or felt the movement of her grace
She lives live behind those bars of steel and waits for her release
Will she die or will we see
Jerusalem In Peace
Each one looks at what he's given, and he studies what he's shown
They hold their maps that show possession, of this place they've called their home
At first they sigh with satisfaction, when they see what's on their maps
Each one's given all he wanted, but the boundaries overlap
So do you wish us to be brothers? Father help us understand
Or will we each kill off the others? to claim this same piece of land
Do You mean there to be hatred? In this place you built to last
And will faith just die a prisoner? In the dungeon of the past
She lives behind those bars of steel and waits for her release
Will she die or will we see
Jerusalem In Peace
She lives behind those bars of steel and waits for her release
Will she die or will we see
Jerusalem In Peace
Jerusalem is sending her voice from inside the prison of disbelief
Stand up you people of the one God to bring about her release
