LET THERE BE PEACE


     

    Here I am to sing a prayer,
    To the gracious God above,
    To bless our beautiful earth 
    With eternal peace and love.

    I pray there be peace  around, 
    In the skies and ethereal space, 
    On the vast lands and deep oceans,
    With their countless creatures.

    May it  be among animals and birds, 
    Trees and herbs and ground creepers, 
    May it pervade the whole universe,
          And help its inmates to survive and flourish. 

            But above all things here mentioned,
            May it   settle deep in the mind of Man,
            Making him aware of its supreme value,
            As fountain-head of true happiness.

            I know,  in these  tumultuous  times
            Songs of peace  would be hardly audible,
            But believe, as well, that love and peace,
            Never can be redundant or undesirable.

           Hence, I am keen to celebrate this day
         Promoting  bonhomie in the whole world
             Join me if you  like this campaign 
                And together shall we carry it on.
