Peace Prayer (Lyrics)
we cry peace, peace, peace — for the storms surround us
peace, peace, peace —- for the fears that haunt us
peace, peace, peace —- God, we are perishing!
we cry peace, peace, peace — for there is no peace
oh hold, hold your arms around this tilting planet
hold, hold your arms around the wounds of this world
hold, hold your arms around your people, all of us,
hold, hold your arms around the world
we cry peace, peace, peace — but there is no justice
peace, peace, peace —- but some have more than others
peace, peace, peace —- but there are hungry bellies
we cry peace, peace, peace — but there is no peace
oh hold, hold your arms around this tilting planet
hold, hold your arms around the wounds of this world
hold, hold your arms around your people, all of us,
hold, hold your arms around the world
may we see the wounds within, around us truthfully
may we take the time and care they need to heal
then bring our hammers and our hearts
a time for ends, a time for starts
show us what to build and what to tear down to the ground
peace, peace, peace — may our minds be set on it
peace, peace, peace —- may our fears make way for it
peace, peace, peace —- lay our weapons down for it
peace, peace, peace — may we join in building it
oh hold, hold your arms around this tilting planet
hold, hold your arms around the wounds of this world
hold, hold your arms around your people, all of us,
hold, hold your arms around the world
