No Child

No child of mine will fight in war
No issue of my blood
no death will come from guns or bombs
no death from that horrible flood
For I will fight for peace each day
and take this holy vow
to soften my heart and open my mind
for peace is needed now
No child at all shall die in war
no mother shall shed any tears
when mankind stands in the vale of love
and quiets each mother's fears
no child will starve for all will have food
all will be able to smile
when mankind joins his hands in love
and walks that peaceful mile
