Today in my sadness and despair
I hear millions of voices
Singing and praying in the streets
We want war no more

From all major cities of the USA
From coast to coast of the USA
Seattle, Los Angeles. San Francisco
Washington, D. C., New York City
Boston, and even in smaller cities
I hear millions of voices
Singing and praying in the streets
We want war no more

Unlike previous ages
Today is a United Nations
Unlike previous ages
There are efforts at
International Law

I pray with St. Francis
Let me be an instrument
For peace on earth
And harmony in my soul
