Peace On Earth Composer(s): Bono; U2 Performer(s): U2
Heaven on earth We need it now Im sick of all of this Hanging around
Sick of sorrow Im sick of the pain Im sick of hearing Again and again That theres gonna be Peace on earth
Where I grew up There werent many trees Where there was wed tear them down And use them on our enemies
They say that what you mark Will surely overtake you And you become a monster So the monster will not break you
And its already gone too far You said that if you go in hard You wont get hurt
Jesus can you take the time To throw a drowning man a line Peace on earth
Tell the ones who hear no sound Whose sons are living in the ground Peace on earth
No whos or whys No one cries like a mother cries For peace on earth
She never got to say goodbye To see the color in his eyes Now hes in the dirt Peace on earth
Theyre reading names out Over the radio All the folks the rest of us Wont get to know
Sean and Julia Gareth Anne and Peter Their lives are bigger than Any bigger
Jesus can you take the time To throw a drowning man a line Peace on earth
To tell the ones who hear no sound Whose sons are living in the ground Peace on earth
Jesus in the song you wrote The words are sticking in my throat Peace on earth
Hear it every Christmas time But hope and history wont rhyme So whats it worth
This peace on earth Peace on earth Peace on earth Peace on earth
