[verse]
In a world of strife and pain,
Where battles rage and lives are slain,
I raise my voice against the tide,
For peace and love to coincide.
[Chorus]
Give me peace, oh give me peace,
Let hatred and violence cease.
We’ll stand together, hand in hand,
And build a world where peace will stand.
[Instrumental]
[verse]
The drums of war may beat so loud,
But love can drown them in a crowd.
Let’s sing a song of hope and grace,
And wipe away the tears we face.
[Chorus]
Give me peace, oh give me peace,
Let hatred and violence cease.
We’ll stand together, hand in hand,
And build a world where peace will stand.
[Instrumental solo]
[bridge]
No more borders, no more walls,
Just open hearts where kindness calls.
The dove of peace will take its flight,
[Chorus]
Give me peace, oh give me peace,
Let hatred and violence cease.
We’ll stand together, hand in hand,
And build a world where peace will stand.
[Instrumental]
[Outro]
So let our voices rise above,
A symphony of peace, of love.
Together we’ll rewrite the score,
And sing a world at war no more.
