You know that everybody has a voice
|
And how they use it is their own free choice
|
In your glory I will not rejoice
|
If you choose the ways of war
|
If you choose the ways of war
|
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
|
My country 'tis of thee; in God we trust
|
But how much longer will He shelter us
|
While we choose the ways of war
|
While the winds of war rage on
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Let mine (oh let my small voice) be a voice for peace
|
Oh let mine (oh let my small voice) be a voice for peace
|
Oh let mine (oh let my small voice) be a voice for peace
|
Let it start here with me-oh let mine be a voice for peace
|
|
The good book tells us thou shalt not kill
|
The truth came shining and it's shining still
|
But how much blood upon this earth must spill
|
Before we lay our weapons down
|
Let us lay our weapons down
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Let mine (oh let my small voice) be a voice for peace
|
Oh let mine (oh let my small voice) be a voice for peace
|
Oh let mine (oh let my small voice) be a voice for peace
|
Let it start here with me, oh let mine be a voice
|
And in the face of the beast, oh let mine be a voice
|
Until the breaths in me cease, oh let mine be a voice for peace
|
Let mine (oh let my small voice) be a voice for peace
|
Oh let mine (oh let my small voice) be a voice for peace
|
Oh let mine (oh let my small voice) be a voice for peace
|
Oh let mine (oh let my small voice) be a voice for peace
|
Raise your voice up, raise your voice up
|
Raise your voice up and sing for the promise
|
[Sing as a round with the last chorus]
