SWEET PEACE


 


 [1] Sweet peace arising 
O’er a world full of woe, 
The Creator’s heart is shining, 
Lighting troubled paths as we go, 
Hold us forever safe, 
Hold us forever safe.


 


 [2] Sweet dove, Peaceful Dove,


Sent as a message from Heaven above,


Chirping a message of hope to the world,


Keeping your peacefulness, little white bird,


Yuletide Harmony  be,


Yuletide Harmony be.


 


 [3] Joy floods our souls ’n our hearts


When opened to receive


Brothers in Spirit all fear departs


When we learn to love and believe


Trust His love and his word


Trust His love and his word


 


 [4] Sweet peace arising 
Breathing life in streets of pain, 
The crushed, the 
battered pining 
For a droplet of the holy rain. 
Forgive us our blood and gore. 
Forgive us our blood and gore.


 


 [5] Sweet peace in our hearts


Bring happiness to the world,


Jews, Muslims, Christians and more


Join our prayer for peace on each shore


No more wars on earth


No more wars on earth


 


[6] Come, Oh Come, 
Jesus child, 
May thy love undefiled 
bring accord on this Holy Day, 
driving war and strife away; 
Heralding love and peace, 
Heralding love and peace.


 


 [7] Sweet peace arising


Joyful hearts sing as one


Bowing to His will alone


We submit in humble gratitude,


Knowing that we are forgiven,


Knowing that we are forgiven.


 


 [8] Sweet peace, noble beliefs 
You’re never far, always in reach 
With a kind gesture to friends or strangers 
One warm hand helping to guide another 
Join me in humanities dreams 
Join me in huanities dreams


 


 [9] O’er the moon shine


All tinkling hearts,


In Cadbury nights with rosy sight,


In laughter n’ love carrying baskets of gifts


It’ll come true…


It’ll start the year anew!


 


 [10] Let's look at the sky


stick to the hands


And Let's run together


to the star that shines


Hold us forever safe,


Hold us forever safe.


 


 [11] When chaos gets its grooming


We'll send it back to death zone


And march our people to the land so green


Where milk and honey flows


They'll forever have their peace


They'll forever have their place


 


 [12] Glorious smile


Nothing is vile


Dancing larks, joyful hearts


Enjoy the day where sweet peace is at bay


When we shall truly love,


When we shall truly love.


 


 [13] Sweet peace arising


Carried on the angels’ wings


Lifting melodies afar,


With the music of the stars


Sing over every heart,


Sing over every heart.


 


Representing nine different countries and various faiths, it is our desire to see peace come through our lives and into the lives of those around us… [1] Emma from England, [2] Shellie from Ireland, [3] Ellen from Canada, [4] Ru Banerjee from the United States, [5] Yos from Israel, [6] JohnL from England, [7] Helena from Australia, [8] Rock and Roll Cowboy from the United States, [9] Raja from India, [10] Jola from Poland, [11] Abd-afeez from Nigeria, [12] Charlène from Canada, [13] Craig from the United States.

I am truly delighted with joint collaboration with some of our Cafe friends .. tis a time to get together, think beautiful thoughts and write wonderful words - methinks we've succeeded.
