Let There Be
Peace On Earth
Let there be peace on earth
and let it begin with me.
Let there be peace on earth,
the peace that was meant to be.
With God as our Father,
brothers all are we;
Let me walk with my brother
in perfect harmony.
Let peace begin with me,
let this be the moment now.
With ev-ry step I take,
let this be my solemn vow:
To take each moment and live
each moment in peace eternally.
Let there be peace on earth
and let it begin with me.
amen
