You and I, brother, we just seem to disagree--
Always hanging up on all we see.
The little things explode more and more,
As the lion roars.
Can't we ever pray for peace?
Now Jesus Christ is living, but we fail to recognize
That we're all the same in his eyes.
Our bigotry grows on more and more--
Oh will it ever cease?
Can't we even pray for peace?
We gotta stop (and take another look around).
You gotta stop (We gotta come back to the Lord).
Oh...
Someday we're gonna have to see the light.
Ain't no need to get uptight.
But if we're gonna do...it right...,
Maybe we need someone...like...
Barton W. Stone (or Alexander Campbell).
Barton Stone (He was a real man).
Barton Stone...
They'd work together,
And they never failed to sieze the day
And live the one another way.
And you can bet they'd always pray...
For peace.
Pray pray pray for peace.
Pray pray pray for peace.
Pray for peace.
Pray for peace.
Pray for peace. Pray for peace.
Pray for peace. Pray for peace.
Pray for
Peace peace peace peace peace peace peace peace.

You and I, brothers, have got friends everywhere.
We know how it works: we just don't care.
All we do is shout and argue on
Like ducks and geese.
Can't we ever pray for peace?
Now, someday there'll be unity, oh, but not in our time.
We know what to do: we won't make time.
It's easier to fight it out--
That really worries me.
Can't we even pray...for peace?
You and I, brothers, we gotta stop this junk
And pray for peace....
