To everything, turn, turn, turn

There is a season, turn, turn, turn

A time to be born, a time to die,

A time to laugh, a time to weep.

A time to build up, a time to break down,
A time to dance, a time to mourn,
A time to cast away stones,
A time to gather stones together.

A time to love, a time to hate,
A time of war, a time of peace,
A time you may embrace,
A time to refrain from embracing.

A time to rend, a time to sew,
A time for love, a time for hate,
A time for peace—I swear it's not too late
