Peace will come poem
Peace will come poem from Charles De Foucauld
Peace will come poem
If you believe that a smile is stronger than a weapon
If you believe in the power of a hand stretched out
If you believe that the things that unite men are more important than those that divide them.
If you believe that being different is a richness, not a danger
If you can choose between hope or fear,
If you believe that it’s you that has to take the first step, not the other …
Then ….
Peace will come
If looking at a child still melts your heart
If you can rejoice from the joy of your neighbor
If injustices to others upset you like an injustice to you,
If for you a stranger you meet is a brother
If you can donate freely a little of your time for love,
If you can accept that another may do a service for you
If you share your bread and can add a piece of your heart to it …
Then ….
Peace will come
If you believe that forgiveness has more value than vengeance
If you can sing the joy of others, and share their happiness
If you can welcome the poor who is wasting your time, and look at him with sweetness,
If you can welcome and accept a different way of doing things than yours,
If you believe that peace is possible,
Then ….
Peace will come
