Meridian Magazine - A Latter-day Saint View of the Conflict in the Holy Land
With sympathy and understanding
We wish to promote a place
For both the Jew and Palestinian
To enjoy a just and lasting peace
Each, being of Father Abraham
This land has been made holy
Ever it will be a prayerful land
For all of his children, wholly

A Latter-day Saint View of the Conflict in the Holy Land

It is hoped that Latter-day Saints can help provide a bridge of understanding between Arabs and Jews in that troubled region of the Holy Land and that to the extent that we look with sympathy and understanding at both sides, we can be an influence to help bring about a just and lasting peace.

To enjoy a just and lasting peace
Each, being of Father Abraham
This land has been made holy
Ever it will be a prayerful land
For all of his children, wholly
A bridge of peace
Being made today
How this will please
With combined faith, pray
That conflict will cease
For a just and lasting peace
Rebuilding hope
As a community of faiths
The Christians want this
The Moslems and the Jews
All the world religions
Imagine this great news!
