Praying For Peace
Praying for peace around the world
Saying no to meaningless wars
Let love everywhere be unfurled
Let bombs, rockets no more be hurled
Opening hope’s eternal doors
Praying for peace around the world
In harmony’s warmth, let’s be curled
Forgetting about settling scores
Let love everywhere be unfurled
In goodwill’s breeze, let truce be twirled,
Let amity cross troubled shores
Praying for peace around the world
Nuclear weaponry must be furled
Together let’s hide them indoors
Let love everywhere be unfurled
Let’s join our hands, build that dreamworld
Where people are not ruled by corps
Praying for peace around the world
Let love everywhere be unfurled
