People of the World

(lyrics: Adebowale Abon, music: David Cooley)

 

To all in David’s town this day

Let’s take up the load of care

Making a heaven on earth

Ending all pain and despair

What dream could be sweeter than this?

 

Listen! Jesus speaks to you

His words echo to this very day

His garment is light and gold

Love is His way

            Love is His way

 

            People of the world

            Give your all unselfishly

            Let love be our watchword

            Let love be found in every word and deed

                        Let love be found in every word and deed

 

Good night my brothers

Before you close your eyes to sleep

Take just one moment

Remember to pray for peace

            Remember to pray for peace

 

[chorus]

[ad lib ending]

What dream could be sweeter than this:

That His peace would live on earth!
