Upon a winding forest roadI met a soldier far from homeI saw he was my enemySo I aimed at him and he at mePrepared was I, but loath to shootAnd he, uncertain what to doA cold sweat formed upon my browBut we both kept rank and stood our groundAnd then, the curious thing occurredOn wings arrived a tiny birdAnd troubled not by war or peaceShe sang for us a melodyOoh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-oohOoh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-oohI dared not move or look awayLest my life, my foe would takeYet in his eyes, I saw his frightJust a boy like me afraid to dieThe meadowlark sang on and onThen morе arrived and joined the songAnd as I hеld my rival stareA tremendous chorus filled the airThen in my heart, as clear as dayI heard a gentle whisper sayMy son, if my disciple beShow grace and love your enemyOoh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-oohOoh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-oohWith swell of birds sung all aroundLowered I my rifle downAnd as my foe took aim at meI showed him yield on bended kneeHe faltered then and shook with fearAnd from his eye, he wiped a tearHis gaze was as a brothers bondAnd then, he turned and he was goneOoh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-oohOoh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-oohOoh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-oohIf I should live to see more daysI pray the Lord to guide my waysWith grace to love my enemyFor grace, my Savior showed to meWith grace to love my enemyFor grace, my Savior showed to me
