I cry like you cry,
I heard him say,
I love like you love,
and to God I pray,
Im just like you are,
With a tear in his eye,
He asked when is the end of war,
Where does peace lie?

I hope like you hope,
I heard him say,
I feel like you feel,
even though we are countries away,
I wish like you wish,
Under God's star,
And I pray,
for the end of war.

I bleed like you bleed,
my blood is red,
I'm afraid like you are,
With tears he said,
I cry when I'm alone in the dark,
I'm just like you are,

I have a heart,
I know that some of us will die,
If I had what I wish for,
there would be a end to war.
I cry like you cry,
I heard him say,
Where does peace lie?
Will we find it someday?
