Pray for Peace

Young ones marching off to war
Into some hellish hinterland.
Pray for peace.
 
Raucous rumblings charge the night to
Spread across the no-man’s land.
Pray for peace.
 
Dauntless dangers stalk the strand
Threatening the Motherland
As we rise to take our stand and
Pray for peace.
 
Makes no difference if you don’t
Believe there is a promised land.
Pray for peace.
 
No one will think ill of you or
Bring you under reprimand.
Pray for peace.
 
Whether sage of firebrand,
Atheist or pious man,
Grace bestows the upper hand.
Pray, pray for peace.
