The raucous noise from some midnight porch may pour
An Offer made, to up and close the door
In moony darkness such noise may never cease
But fear not that moon, for it is the Moon of Peace

Chorus
Moon of Peace, shine in our hearts tonight
Your glowing orb still lingers in my mind
though the window pane is cold, thy grace is bright
How can I leave such memories behind?

Once a railroad bum on his way to some new town
was collared by a bull on night patrol
With his tattered, weathered knickers hanging down
Butt the bum just smiled, and let the moon shine from his soul

Chorus
