First Line: Peace on a thousand hills and dales
Last Line: In brotherhood forever.
Alternate Author Name(s): Tremaine, John
Subject(s): Peace


Peace on a thousand hills and dales,
Peace in the hearts of men
While kindliness reclaims the soil
Where bitterness has been.

The night of strife is drifting past,
The storm of shell has ceased,
Disrupted is the cordon fell,
Sweet charity released.

Forth from the shadow, swift we come
Wrought in the flame together,
All men as one beneath the sun
In brotherhood forever.
