Amid this scene in perfect green Young men of bygone days Lie in tombs to testify Peace is the only way And somewhere upon another shore With quiet calming seas Far away from pit and tomb No death, guns, nor disease And from that splendid honored place Young men's names are called And with our saddened memories We ne'er forget their fall Of death and war upon the pit Amidst all battle cries Are angels pointing upward Where every young man lies Brothers killed with guns and arms Machines which sealed their fate But worse still yet is mankind's tongue With all its power to hate 'twas from this tongue of hate and jibe That armed those bombs and tanks Give Love today in all you say And for their words give thanks And if a shadow of this place Comes rolling by your mind It serves as a reminder To give and Love sublime
