Lyrics Dan Fogelberg

Dan Fogelberg

A Voice for Peace

You know that everybody has a voice

And how they use it is their own free choice

In your glory I will not rejoice

If you choose the ways of war

If you choose the ways of war

Ashes to ashes and dust to dust

My country 'tis of thee, in God we trust

But how much longer will He shelter us

While we choose the ways of war

While the winds of war rage on

Let mine "oh let my small voice" be a voice for peace

Oh let mine "oh let my small voice" be a voice for peace

Oh let mine "oh let my small voice" be a voice for peace

Let it start here with me, Oh let mine be a voice for peace

The good book tells us thou shalt not kill

The truth came shining and it's shining still

But how much blood upon this earth must spill

Before we lay our weapons down

Let us lay our weapons down

Let mine "oh let my small voice" be a voice for peace

Oh let mine "oh let my small voice" be a voice for peace

Oh let mine "oh let my small voice" be a voice for peace

Let it start here with me, Oh let mine be a voice for peace

And in the face of the beast, oh let mine be a voice

Until the breaths in me cease, oh let mine be a voice for peace

Let mine "oh let my small voice" be a voice for peace

Oh let mine "oh let my small voice" be a voice for peace

Oh let mine "oh let my small voice" be a voice for peace

Let it start here with me, Oh let mine be a voice for peace

Raise your voice up, raise your voice up

Raise your voice up and sing for the promise
