PEACE FOR EVERYONE
Open your eyes to a new day my friend
I'm wishing that sunshine will enter your life again
Together we can pray and revive an old trend
Don't let go of your faith and believe in yourself, Amen.
Living in a world that is certain to be lost
You see a world with disease, hunger, and wars that destroys families and homes
It will take more than love to benefit a worldly cost
You see people outside bathing and drinking from a river
And spending money on weapons to protect families and homes.
Maybe you're waiting for an answer from a heavenly response
You're praying for the Angels and Saints to intercede
for us
People have to wake-up knowing that this world can be loss
Maybe someday we'll realize that we are one big family
And perhaps be saying, "What was the fuss?".
You have good intentions and you have a wonderful heart
Praying and hoping that everyone will live together as one
I will remember you in my prayers and keep our differences apart
Someday we're hoping that there will be peace for everyone.
