I stood upon the hill above the village
and gazed out on the valley there below
and wondered why she chose 6 little children
to tell the world to pray and let us know
That Peace we all could have,
just look up & pray for it.
To her give all our troubles and our cares
and she will ask her Son to bless and keep us
in the hallow of His hand
for Love is there.
Chorus: Ave, Ave, Ave, Ave Maria
Look down upon your children in this world,
Ave, Ave, Ave, Ave Maria
Lead us into the Presence of the Lord.
She tells us to reach out to one another
to never turn our backs on those in need.
And when the world is dark and full of worry,
She'll hurry to our aid and intercede.
I know she'll never leave us or forsake us,
and from our side she never will be far.
And with her Son she will protect and keep us,
Sweet Queen of Peace of Medjugorje.
Chorus: Ave, Ave, Ave, Ave Maria
Look down upon your children in this world,
Ave, Ave, Ave, Ave Maria
Lead us into the Presence of the Lord.
Ave, Ave, Ave, Ave Maria
We come from lands both near and far,
Ave, Ave, Ave, Ave Maria
Sweet Queen of Peace of Medjugorje.
