Verse 1:
How can it be that God is love
When blood runs down upon our land
And fathers lose their only son?
Where is the hope?
Oh God we pray for White Ribbon Day.

How can it be that you could love
When blood ran down that wooden cross?
Your father gave his only son
You came for peace
You came to die for White Ribbon Day

Pre-chorus:
And we pray for peace
To flood our hearts again
Only God can save our nation now
And we long for joy to fill our streets again
Only God can save our nation now

Verse 2:
How can it be that God is just
When flesh is torn from young and old
And children run in bloody fields?
Where is the hope?
Oh God we pray for White Ribbon Day

Pre-chorus:
And we pray for peace
to flood our hearts again
Only God can save our nation now
And we long for joy to fill our streets again
Only God can save our nation now

Chorus:
Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Hallelujah, for White Ribbon Day
Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Hallelujah, for White Ribbon Day

Verse 3:
And can it be that you are just
When flesh was torn from young and old?
And here we stand saved by your blood
We'll stand with courage
We'll live and die for White Ribbon Day

Chorus
