Now there is peace, the bloody war is over Church bells ring as people rouse and cheer The bombs don't drop no more No more hiding behind locked doors Now there's time for peace Now there is joy for all across the land God bless the boys, you'll say, died for victory Now there will be another short pause Until someone finds a new d**h cause Now there's time for joy Though I know we will be saved
From ourselves, we cannot live until we are In years to come we could still be Wearing thorns and speaking spears These are the fears, these are the fears These we have to live with When there is love, peace and joy will follow Time to start again, the Judas-men have gone Widows' tears still flow, in the streets the fires glow Now there's time, now there's time Now there's time for love
