TEACHERS OF PEACE

I thought it was not my decision,

The weapons are many,

It’s a matter of time,

War is an endless condition

But now I see where I was blind.

CHORUS

Come join with me and we will be

the teachers of peace.

Spreading the light in the message of life

as teachers of peace.

We’ll learn to forgive, to love and to live

as teachers of peace.

Teachers of Peace.

Teachers of Peace.

The answer is not accusation.

Just let peace of mind grow inside of you and

spread across the nation.

Teach only love in all that you do.

CHORUS

When we face our fear

and love it.

Forgive each other

for a past that is gone

and be in the world and not of it

then the meek will inherit

the earth as the strong.

CHORUS

Don’t stand and fight, give love and give light

as teachers of peace.

Do not hate war, love peace and you’re

teachers of peace.

In all that you do, be in plain view

As teachers of peace.

Teachers of Peace.

Teachers of Peace.
