CHILDREN FOR PEACE lyrics by Polly Wood and Erik Nielsen
Imagine a school where love is the rule. Can you see a mine where peace is the jewel?
Let's open a school called The Academy of Children for Peace. Let's all open a school for children to cultivate peace. We can teach loving-kindness, we can open our hearts. The children will teach us to keep them open, open to all other parts of life, of love, and law.
Imagine a school where love is the rule. Can you see a mine where peace is the jewel?
Let's enroll our President and seat him in the back of the class. The children will teach him and if he finds peace in his heart of hearts he will pass. At nap time we'll cuddle him and he'll find delight in things other than war. Then he'll pass on his post to the girl with the most peace in her heart and love to the core.
Imagine a school where love is the rule. Can you see a mine where peace is the jewel?
