A Little Peace on Earth lyrics
by Legacy Five
Lately I've been praying for
A little peace on earth
The kind the angels sang about
The starry night of Jesus' birth
And don't it seem like lately
This old world is going wild
And we could all sure use
A taste of mercy mild
So, I'm praying for all it's worth
For a little peace on earth
It's hard to imagine a silent night
In a busy world that never seems to sleep
But when I close my eyes
And think of Bethlehem's Child
Then I realize just what we really need
Lately I've been praying for
A little peacе on earth
The kind the angеls sang about
The starry night of Jesus' birth
And don't it seem like lately
This old world is going wild
And we could all sure use
A taste of mercy mild
So, I'm praying for all it's worth
For a little peace on earth
I hear a church bell ringing in the distance
And faith wells up in me like a child
I bow my head and ask the Lord, "This Christmas
Could you help us get along for just awhile"
Lately I've been praying for
A little peace on earth
The kind the angels sang about
The starry night of Jesus' birth
And don't it seem like lately
This old world is going wild
And we could all sure use
A taste of mercy mild
So, I'm praying for all it's worth
Yeah, I'm praying for all it's worth
For a little peace on earth
