Peace On Earth Begins Today - Porter Wagoner

作词：Larry Kingston

作曲：Larry Kingston

Lay down your weapons of the war

peace on earth begins today

I dreamed last night a dream so real

about a blood drenched battlefield

With weapons aimed and set to kill

a perfect stranger on the hill

Then something made me hesitate

a voice I swear I heard say wait

And there before me stood a man

in snow white robe with out

stretched hands

Lay down your weapons of the war

you will not need them anymore

Bow down instead your head and

pray peace on earth begins today

I saw the man I nearly killed throw

down his weapons on the hill

Like long lost brothers then we cried

and clambered down

the mountain side

And there upon the meadow green

we saw what eyes have never seen

For all the leaders of the land were

gathered there shaking hands

And in their midst a stranger strolled

with nail scared hands and a

snow white robe

Lay down your weapons of the war

you will not need them anymore

Bow down instead your head

and pray peace on

earth begins today

Peace on earth begins today
