Peace Will Come

(Hank Williams)



I'm praying for the day when the whole wide world can say

That this cruel war it is o'er

And the boys are gone, start their long journey home

Oh, I'm praying for the day when peace will come.



When the black clouds roll away and the skies are bright and gay

And the guns are silent once more

And the bombs no longer fly from the planes up in the skies

Oh, I'm praying for the day when peace will come.



Oh, there's mother and dad, don't you know they'll be so glad

To see their sons coming home

This old world will rock with joy for that freedom loving boy

Oh, I'm praying for the day when peace will come.



Sweethearts and wives so dear who have waited for that year

For their loved ones to return

This old world will be so gay on that great and happy day

Oh, I'm praying for the day when peace will come...
