A Time For War To Turn To Peace
Words: Bob Fraser - Music: Bob Fraser and Kieran Larkin

Verse 1
May the peace which passes understanding
Keep our hearts and minds this day
As we stand together and remember
Take a moment just to pray
For our world wherever there is conflict
For our nation to be free
For a greater love for one another
As we live in harmony

Chorus
There’s a time for all things under heaven
A time to live, a time to die
A time to plant or be uprooted
A time to laugh a time to cry
A time to speak, a time to just be silent
A time to see all striving cease
A time for love to triumph over conflict
A time for war to turn to peace
A time for war to turn to peace

Verse 2
May the hope that rises from within us
When we face our darkest day
Take away the fear and give us courage
Be the light to find our way
As we stand for truth and fight for justice
As we lay all anger down
Let us see the power of forgiveness
Bring new life to barren ground

Chorus
