The Lion Will Lie Down With The Lamb - McCarthy

In the vanguard of the fight

Against apartheid

Replace General Motors

And IBM

We have asked free business

To leave South Africa

Put aside the profits

And set the people free then

Because I’ve seen the day

And it’s not far away

When the lion will lie down

At peace beside the lamb

The lion will lie down

At peace beside the lamb

It’s not far away

That wonderful day

I think we’ll see the day

When the world’s money men

Will lay down their lives at the barricades

In their hands red flags

On that not so distant day

We’ll all join together fighting on the same side

The lion will lie down

At peace beside the lamb

I see the day

And it’s not far away

The lion will lie down

At peace beside the lamb

It’s not far away

That wonderful day

Come to your senses

Pull out of South Africa

Let the people free their

Like you do in other countries

Throughout history

Business and governments

Have ever been in the forefront

Of the fight for freedom

The lion will lie down

At peace beside the lamb

I have seen the day

And it’s not far away

The lion will lie down

At peace beside the lamb

It’s not far away

That wonderful day

The lion will lie down

The lion will lie down

The lion will lie down

The lion will lie down
