WHERE POPPIES GROW
Author(s): Paul Michael
Songbook: Songs of Love Songbook
KeyWords: Comfort,

Where are the boys from over there?
I wonder where they've gone
We saw them when they marched away
Off to the great World War
We heard the cheers, saw the passing parade
In Glory they marched on
But now it's hushed, and there they lie
No one cheers no more

Chorus:
In Flanders Field, where poppies grow
Between the crosses row on row
They mark our place,
Oh don't you know of Flanders Field
We lived, we felt the sunlight's glow
We laughed, we loved, but don't you know
Here we lie row on row in Flanders Field

Beloved, will you pray for them
They know not what they've done
Nobody ever wins a war at the point of a gun
Only when love rules our hearts will the final war be won

And there'll be peace upon the earth
In the Kingdom of the Son

[Repeat Chorus]
