For Our World Lyrics - Music Through Heartsongs - Billy Gilman

We need to stop, just stop 

Stop for a moment 

Before anybody says or does anything 

That may hurt anyone else 

We need to be silent, just silent 

Silent for a moment 

Before we forever lose the blessings of songs 

That grow in our hearts 

We need to notice, just notice 

Notice for a moment 

Before the future slips away into ashes and dust of humility 

We have, we are, a mosaic of gifts 

To nurture, to offer, to accept 

We need to be, just be 

Be for a moment 

Kind and gentle, innocent and trusting 

Like children and lambs 

Never judging or vengeful 

Like the judging and the vengeful 

And now, let us pray 

Differently, yet together 

Before there is no earth, no life 

No chance for peace 

Peace for our world, our world
