Turn! Turn! Turn! Lyrics

    Pete seeger

    To everything, turn, turn, turn
    There is a season, turn, turn, turn
    And a time for every purpose under heaven

    A time to be born, a time to die
    A time to plant, a time to reap
    A time to kill, a time to heal
    A time to laugh, a time to weep

    A time to build up, a time to break down
    A time to dance, a time to mourn
    A time to cast away stones
    A time to gather stones together

    A time of love, a time of hate
    A time of war, a time of peace
    A time you may embrace
    A time to refrain from embracing

    A time to gain, a time to lose
    A time to rend, a time to sew
    A time of love, a time of hate
    A time of peace, i swear it's not too late



    Original source

    To every thing there is a season, and a time
    To every purpose under the heaven:

    A time to be born, and a time to die; a time
    To plant, and a time to pluck up that which is
    Planted;

    A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to
    Break down, and a time to build up;

    A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time
    To mourn, and a time to dance;

    A time to cast away stones, and a time to
    Gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a
    Time to refrain from embracing;

    A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to
    Keep, and a time to cast away;

    A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to
    Keep silence, and a time to speak;

    A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of
    War, and a time of peace.
