Sing for peace,
Speak for peace,
Given chance, given choice,
Work for peace,
Write for peace,
Resonating ev'rywhere,
Echoing our common care:
Ev'rything that has voice,
Sing for peace!
2 All the world longs for peace,
Cries for peace,
Dies for peace;
Let the children ev'ry place
Sleep in peace,
Grow in peace,
Home and country safe to be
Where the spirit rises free:
All the world longs for peace,
Cries for peace.
3 Ev'ryone who has breath,
You and I,
Passers-by,
Ev'ry tenant of the earth,
Plant for peace,
Gather peace;
Cultivate a neighborhood
Cherishing our neighbors' good:
Ev'ryone who has breath,
Live in peace! Languages: English Tune Title: SING FOR PEACE
Everything That Has Voice
