Gentle Lord, Oh Prince of Peace,
Grant that soon all wars will cease.
Listen to the children crying.
Listent to the grown folks sighing.
All around the world ther's groaning
Longing for those lost they're moaning.
Gentle Lord, Oh Prince of Peace,
Grant that soon all wars will cease.
Soften all the hearts of men,
Whom all the world they'd gladly pen
Within their walls and do not care
How many hands are wrung in deep despair.
Gentle Lord, Oh Prince of Peace,
Grant that soon all wars will cease.
Make the warriors throughout creation
Lay down their arms in every nation
Promising to live in loving peace;
Letting joy once more increase.
Gentle Lord, Oh Prince of Peace,
Grant that soon all wars will cease.
