7.A Prayer To St. Peter

Let them in peter  for they are very tired  give them couches
where the angels sleep  and light those fires  let them wake
whole again  to brand new dawns  fired by the sun  not
war-times
Dy guns  may their peace be deep  remember where the broken
bodies lie  god knows how young they were  to have to die 
give them things they like  let them make some noise  give
dance hal
Ds not golden harps  to these our boys  let them love peter 
for they've had no time  they should have bird songs and trees
 and hills to climb  the taste of summer  and a ripened pear

Irls sweet as meadow wind  and flowing hair  and tell them how
they are missed  but say not to fear  it's gonna be all right
 with us down here
