Will the War Ever End?

Will the war ever end?

will they let the peace come in?

through the iron gates of Hades

where so many people burn.

When we close our eyes quite tight

and we picture

the darkness of the night

there are so many stars in the sky

they are so beautiful

until they die

Soon we open our eyes

and we look among the stars

We wish for all the love

to soon become unbarred

If the love is then released

the peace will come again

We will love our brother

A stranger would be a friend

But the iron gates stay closed and locked

for no one can escape

the war and the fighting

the death and the hate

Unless we take a key

which our Father has freely given

Why wont you accept it?

Will the war ever end?
