Empires built on force give rise,
To yet more plans to kill and fight.
To overcome evil, first we need,
To admit that might is never right.
Reducing countries to the stone-age,
If with their policies we don’t agree,
Is clearly a waste of God-given talents,
Stupidity to the nth degree.

US soldiers pass through Shannon
And head to where their bombs are dropped.
It’s more than high-time to face this issue,
Collaboration with them should be stopped.
Many feel shame and tremendous anger,
As people cry out and their loved-ones die.
May amends be made to all those victims,
Whose homes and lives in shatters lie.

We should always try to listen,
To opinions and informed debate,
Hear the grievance of those suffering,
And help them overcome their hate.
Peace on Earth is always possible,
By following just a simple Truth,
Revealed in all the Christian gospels,
Of Matthew, Mark, John and Luke.

Returning Good for every Evil,
Is the only way of genuine peace.
Goodwill leads us to seek forgiveness,
And grace from God we can thus release.
Love is shown to be more powerful,
When searching for a way to build,
A world where harmony will always lead
To no more people being hurt or killed.
