Within my heart there lies a spring
Where love and peace abide
And from that spring there flows a river fine
Through all the countryside
But few have drunk therein
And why I do not know
May this world find a resting place
Where peaceful waters flow
The dead leaves of autumn
That cling so desperately
Must fly before the cold October wind
Their simple life is ended
Must they be born to die again?
Oh, may the light of freedom shine
For all the world to see
And peace and joy to all mankind
Through all the years to be
For soon the leaves will die
And the long, hard wind will blow
May this world find a resting place
Where peaceful waters flow
Where peaceful waters flow
Where peaceful waters flow
