I stumbled across a new song today – well, an old (1955, older than me) song today. From Let There Be Peace On Earth written by Jill Jackson-Miller and Sy Miller:
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 every 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
Based on my internet research this is mostly considered a Christmas song. Vince Gill and Harry Connick, Jr. both have it on their Christmas albums. That said, it occurs to me that may be part of the problem. The song, and the sentiment, are (as the song notes) worthy of 365.25 days a year.
It occurs to me...
