Bomb Scenes

Would that all wars were over from this day 
no more bullets bombs no more death I pray 
on bloodied battlefields to end loves dream 
let the angel of peace weave her magic ray 

The strident bugle sounds that echoed long 
silenced now that the battle's cries are strong 
jubilant shouts arise this day in victory sweet 
declaring to be conquerors right or wrong 

Let heads be bowed, give thanks to the lord 
as people once more can live in accord 
dreams long lost now see light of the day 
let peace bells ring as spirits soared
