Be gentle, be gentle, |
|
And all the world is yours |
|
A river flowing home to sea |
|
You shall be. |
|
Be strong and know your heart |
|
Protect the small, the weak, |
|
And love like morning rain shall fall |
|
On a song. |
|
There is no peace |
|
In an angry heart |
|
The wise know the truth |
|
There is no power stronger |
|
Than gentleness of heart. |
|
Beneath, the waters and the rock will turn the sand |
|
It took a wounded man to show the world |
|
That if we want to live |
|
We must forgive |
|
Oh, Lord the night is long, |
|
The dawn cannot be far |
|
When gentle winds of peace |
|
Fill every heart. |
|
A river flowing home to sea, |
|
I shall be. |
