Peace on Earth Lyrics by U2

Peace on Earth Lyrics

    Heaven on Earth
    We need it now
    I'm sick of all of this
    Hanging around

    Sick of sorrow
    I'm sick of the pain
    I'm sick of hearing
    Again and again
    That there's gonna be
    Peace on Earth

    Where I grew up
    There weren't many trees
    Where there was we'd tear them down
    And use them on our enemies

    They say that what you mock
    Will surely overtake you
    And you become a monster
    So the monster will not break you

    And it's already gone too far
    Who said that if you go in hard
    You won't get hurt

    Jesus can you take the time
    To throw a drowning man a line
    Peace on Earth

    Tell the ones who hear no sound
    Whose sons are living in the ground
    Peace on Earth

    No whos or whys
    No one cries like a mother cries
    For peace on Earth

    She never got to say goodbye
    To see the color in his eyes
    Now he's in the dirt
    Peace on Earth

    They're reading names out
    Over the radio
    All the folks the rest of us
    Won't get to know

    Sean and Julia
    Gareth, Ann, and Breda
    Their lives are bigger than
    Any big idea

    Jesus can you take the time
    To throw a drowning man a line
    Peace on Earth

    To tell the ones who hear no sound
    Whose sons are living in the ground
    Peace on Earth

    Jesus in this song you wrote
    The words are sticking in my throat
    Peace on Earth

    Hear it every Christmas time
    But hope and history won't rhyme
    So what's it worth

    This peace on Earth
    Peace on Earth
    Peace on Earth
    Peace on Earth
