17 WHEN WE LOVE OUR SONS AND DAUGHTERS

1
Oh, when we love our sons and daughters more than we hate any enemy,
Then wars will cease---yes, wars will cease.
Oh, when we love our sons and daughters more than we hate any enemy,
Then wars will cease---Lord, may that day come soon!

2
Lord, help us truly love our children and release us from hating enemies
so that Your peace will shine in a war-torn world.
Lord, help us truly love our children and release us from hating enemies
so that Your peace will shine---Lord, may that day come soon!

3
Oh, let our love grow ever stronger, hate and fear become compassion
So that wars will cease, yes, wars will cease.
Oh, let our love grow ever stronger, hate and fear become compassion
So that wars will cease---Lord, may that day come soon!

4
Jesus said, “Love your enemies, pray for those who persecute you.
Oh, blessed by the Lord are you who make peace.”
Jesus said, “Love your enemies, pray for those who persecute you.”
Lord, bless us as we work for peace. Amen.
