©2006 Laurie Story Vela
We're singing the world a song about love
everytime we stop and give each other a hug
when we smile at a stranger who's just passing by
when we hold a friend who just needs to cry
Chorus:
For peace on the planet begins with us
when we follow our hearts
with faith and with trust
We're singing the world a song about peace
everytime we choose kind words to speak
when we think thoughts
that nurture the good in our souls
when we reach out to fill
a hungry neighbor's bowl
Chorus
We're singing the world a song about joy
everytime we play together with joyful noise.
The joy that we feel is felt by everyone ...
It's good for the world
when we laugh and have fun!
Chorus
It's good for the world
when we laugh and have fun!
One by one, joy to everyone, everyone, everyone.
Joy to the world, joy to everyone.
It's good, it's good, it's good to have fun.
Fun, fun, fun, everyone ...
Chorus
We're singing the world a song ....

In my heart and my soul, grows the seed of me

In Life’s holy flow, I know and I grow
The seed of Love that is me …
