We Pray For World Peace
We pray for world peace to reign with kindness
midst blest freedom of liberty function
while exercising love and graciousness
affirming brotherly interaction.
Midst blest freedom of liberty function
let’s seek God’s intervention we do need
affirming brotherly interaction
by triumphant unity creed and deed.
Let’s seek God’s intervention we do need
to vanquish attacking aggression-blight
by triumphant unity creed and deed
since citizens have the right for truth’s light.
To vanquish attacking aggression-blight
let’s denounce domination, greed and pride
since citizens have the right for truth’s light
along progress with good governance-stride.
Let’s denounce domination, greed and pride
while exercising love and graciousness…
along progress with good governance-stride
we pray* for world peace to reign with kindness.
*2Thessalonians 1:11 Wherefore also we pray always… that our God would … fulfil all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power.
