After The War Is Over 1917

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK - 21 Feb 2003

Angels they are weeping
o'er the foreign war,
transports are sailing
from shore to shore.
Brave heroes are falling
to arise no more
but still the bugle's calling
ev'ry man to war.

After the war is over
and the world's at peace,
many a heart will be aching
after the war has ceased.
Many a home will be vacant,
many a child be alone,
but I hope they'll all be happy
in a place called
"Home Sweet Home."

After the war is over
and the world's at peace,
many a heart will be aching
after the war has ceased.
Many a home will be vacant,
many a child be alone,
but I hope they'll all be happy
in a place called
"Home Sweet Home."

Changed will be the picture
of the foreign lands,
maps will change entirely
to diff'rent hands.
Kings and Queens
may over rule their fellow man,
But pray they'll be united
like our own free land.

After the war is over
and the world's at peace,
many a heart will be aching
after the war has ceased.
Many a home will be vacant,
many a child be alone,
but I hope they'll all be happy
in a place called
"Home Sweet Home."

After the war is over
and the world's at peace,
many a heart will be aching
after the war has ceased.
Many a home will be vacant,
many a child be alone,
but I hope they'll all be happy
in a place called
"Home Sweet Home."
