Peace in Our Time |
| Who holds the money, who holds the need |
| Who holds the strings of misery or the purse of greed |
| And the gunmen reap while the gangsters sow |
| And law is cheap when the smugglers go |
| (Give us peace) |
| Give us peace in our time |
| (Give us peace) |
| Give us peace in our time |
| While I have a life to live |
| Then I have no life to give |
| (Give us peace) |
| Give us peace in our time |
| In sun-kissed rooms in city slums |
| Minds are restless till the airmail comes |
| From the forest floor to the western mind |
| Like a chat show topic or a party line |
| And the hardest love of all is to forgive |
| As the world comes tumbling down |
| (Give us peace) |
| Give us peace in our time |
| (Give us peace) |
| Give us peace in our time |
| While I have a life to live |
| Then I have no life to give |
| (Give us peace) |
| Give us peace in our time |
| Let all the rain come down on blind desire |
| Like a thundercloud that holds a prairie fire |
| I hear the blame and I see the cause |
| A stronger voice and a stronger law |
| But buyers buy and sellers sell |
| Public consumption of a private hell |
| (Give us peace) |
| Give us peace in our time |
| (Give us peace) |
| Give us peace in our time |
| While I have a life to live |
| Then I have no life to give |
| (Give us peace) |
| Give us peace in our time |
| (Give us peace) |
| Give us peace in our time |
| (Give us peace) |
| Give us peace in our time |
| While I have a life to live |
| Then I have no life to give |
| (Give us peace) |
| Give us peace in our time |
