Anthem of Peace arr. Mack Wilberg
When in the morning I begin my singing, all the village listens to my song. Ev’ry window opens to receive me, welcoming my voice so clear and strong. In field and town the people gladly greet me, with the wind I gaily swing along; Ev’ry ear is tuning to my music, ev’ry voice will one day join my song. From earth and sky the joyful echo thunders,
Sun and stars repeat the glad refrain.
Hill and valley swell the mighty chorus, all the world in harmony again.
We shall walk together in the valley of peace.
When all lands walk hand in hand together, we shall walk in peace. As we join with one heart,
Nations will be a part of our song heard across land and sea. When we sing with one song,
Lands and people will long for the peace that forever shall be.
