A Song With A Wish For Peace On Earth
Mods, in the spirit of the season, I hope this can remain.....

Cease Fire, a Christmas Song

By Keith Haugen

Not far from where the Christ Child lay
Men are killing men today
While we talk of peace on earth, goodwill to men
Bombs and rockets light the sky
Where angels once sang on high
And we supply the weapons that spell their bloody end.

If you listen, you can still hear the angels
It matters not where you may be
You might even hear God's own voice commanding:
"Cease Fire! Let My people be."

Somewhere on this blessed earth
There's been trouble since before His birth
Men cried out, but we ignored their pleas.
But when it's Christmas everywhere
We raise our voice in common prayer
For an end to war, for everlasting peace.

If you listen, you can still hear the angels
It matters not where you may be
You might even hear God's own voice commanding:
"Cease Fire! Set My people free."

So listen, leaders of every land
It's time to stop and take a stand
Peace and love are gifts that you should give
If dreams of peace should now come true
The world will send it's thanks to you
Cease Fire! Let all God's children live.

If you listen, you can still hear the angels
It matters not where you may be
You might even hear God's own voice commanding:
"Cease Fire! Come celebrate with me."

They move my thread, so it will die a sad death, which it doesn't deserve.

Mahalo for being there!
