"Turn! Turn! Turn! (To Everything There Is A Season)" is a song written by Pete Seeger in the late 1950s. Except for the title which is repeated throughout the song and the final verse of the song, the lyrics are adapted word-for-word from Chapter 3 of the Book of Ecclesiastes, set to music and recorded in 1962. The song was originally released as "To Everything There Is a Season" on The Limeliters' album "Folk Matinee" and then some months later on Pete Seeger's own album "The Bitter and the Sweet".
The song became an international hit in late 1965 bowing at #80 on October 23, 1965, before reaching #1 on the Hot 100 chart on December 4, 1965, #3 in Canada (Nov. 29, 1965), and also peaking at #26 on the UK Singles Chart. A #15 hit in Holland. In the US the song holds distinction as the #1 hit with the oldest lyrics (Book of Ecclesiastes), theoretically authored by King Solomon.
Source file of the edit is the version on the 1965 album "Turn! Turn! Turn!" (blu-spec cd - Japan 2012 remaster) where it is a stereo bonus track.
TURN! TURN! TURN! (TO EVERYTHING THERE IS A SEASON)
(king Solomon/Pete Seeger)
to everything, turn, turn, turn
there is a season, turn, turn, turn
and a time to every purpose under heaven
a time to be born, a time to die
a time to plant, a time to reap
a time to kill, a time to heal
a time to laugh, a time to weep
to everything, turn, turn, turn
there is a season, turn, turn, turn
and a time to every purpose under heaven
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
to everything, turn, turn, turn
there is a season, turn, turn, turn
and a time to every purpose under heaven
a time of love, a time of hate
a time of war, a time of peace
a time you may embrace
a time to refrain from embracing
to everything, turn, turn, turn
there is a season, turn, turn, turn
and a time to every purpose under heaven
a time to gain, a time to lose
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
