[Verse 1]
How can it be that God is love
When blood rolls down upon our land
And fathers lose their only son?
Where is the hope?
Oh God we pray for white ribbon day

[Verse 2]
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

[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 3]
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 cry for white ribbon day
[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

[Bridge]
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah for white ribbon day
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah for white ribbon day

[Verse 4]
And can it be that You are just
When flesh was torn for 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

[Ending]
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah for white ribbon day
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah for white ribbon day
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah for white ribbon day, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah for white ribbon day
For white ribbon day
For white ribbon day
