Lord, grant us new peace
To accept what we can't change,
Give us the will to change what we can
And wisdom to tell them apart.

Fewer and fewer people remain who could
Truly enjoy the joy of others,
But if you look at it differently, it seems
That finding good things is easy, but doing them is hard.

You reach out a hand to another hand, putting something
Surely you check if someone is watching or not,
Proudly saying your name in your mind to the One Above
While wishing for much more than you’ve put in,

Give, say the old folks
Who have more decades than fingers on their hands
And they were gifted wings with which
Unfortunately, no one taught them to fly.

You run a lifetime to make it a home just for you,
Only to end up not even being able to stay in it.
Looking at everything like a pure human dream
That we dream of, while for others it comes true.

We need peace to accept
The things we can no longer change
And for those that can be changed, grant us will
And wisdom to make a difference between them!

Love your neighbor - we learned that long ago
Knock and it will be opened - it sounds familiar
We ignore our kin, we don’t respect our brothers
We don’t understand ourselves, but we want others to understand us.

It seems even the moon has more months than Saturdays
And the sun seems to have lost its smiles,
Or maybe if you do good, it must be done right
From the heart, without a reason, and let no one see you.

The world is full of people, but not of humans
You see, what you sow no longer grows,
You’d like to do, and you too, be part of twins
But practically you can’t find someone you’d want to sow with.

We live temporarily through what we receive around us
But we will live forever only through what we give,
And we should hurry, for life is on loan
The less remains, the less is more!

We need peace to accept
The things we can no longer change
And for those that can be changed, grant us will
And wisdom to make a difference between them!

We need...
