    A Prayer for Peace by Rachel Cross is played in a wonderful, exotic tuning and adapted from the Hebrew song Lo Yisa Goy, the music transports the listener to the Middle East. Combining English, Hebrew, and Arabic, Rachel creates a moving and powerful plea for world peace.

    Story Behind the Song
    I was motiveated to express my wishes for a peaceful World.

    Lyrics
    And every man ‘neath his vine and fig tree
    Shall live in peace and unafraid
    And every woman ‘neath her vine and fig tree
    Shall live in peace and unafraid

    And into plowshares beat their swords
    Nations shall make war no more
    And into plowshares beat their swords
    Nations shall make war no more

    (Hebrew)
    Lo yisa goy el goy cherev
    Lo yilmedu od milchama
    Lo yisa goy el goy cherev
    Lo yilmedu od milchama

    Lo yisa goy el goy cherev
    Lo yilmedu od milchama
    Lo yisa goy el goy cherev
    Lo yilmedu od milchama

    Bridge:
    (Arabic)
    Men salee leh salem
    Salam aleichum, aleichum salam
    Salam….

    People (children) are dying everyday
    Stripped of their hopes in so many ways
    brother kills brother
    Nation kills a nation
    Violence kills love and the imagination
    Violence kills love and the imagination
    Violence kills love

    And into plowshares beat their swords
    Nations shall make war no more
    Lo yisa goy el goy cherev
    Lo yilmedu od milchama

    We pray for peace
    (Men salee leh salem)
    We pray for peace my friends
    (chaverim, chaverim)
    We pray for peace
