The Peace Song Narrative
Throughout the endless reaches of the universe
there are only two constants, chaos and life.
On one of the outermost limbs of the galaxy designated
The Milky Way, there is a very small solar system with
a G type star at it's center. On the third planet from 
this
star, due to a combination of chemicals raised to
consciousness, there is a sentient species that has
Arrived at a moment of crucial decision. Where 
acceptance
And harmony ensure life, and greed and fear ensure
Death. What most of them don't understand, is that the
Only difference it makes is to them

Peace Song (May Peace Prevail on Earth) (L.A. circa 
1986)
May peace prevail on Earth
May peace be in our homes and countries
In these troubled times we live in
We will see the dark come light, Oh
May peace prevail on Earth tonight
In our lives

May our missions be accomplished
May our deeds be won with joy
And we will thank the guardian deities
Thank the guardian spirit force, Oh
May the ship of peace be on her course
Toward all shores

And the sages make their statements
But we will learn that wisdom comes
From mistakes we've made upon the way, Oh
May peace be here to stay
In our day

And we are gathered here in freedom
We are gathered here in might
To show our children the solutions
That come from peace and why it's right, Oh
May peace prevail on Earth tonight
In our lives

And the distant mountains beckon
And the skies will heed our cry
And space awaits the joy of mankind
As we ask the reasons why, Oh
Yet peace in not so high
It lies inside

Of every being there is vision
Each man and woman has a voice
If we can work together in harmony
We bring peace out from it's source, Oh
May the ship of peace be on her course
Toward all shores

For war is not the answer
It is not the strongest force
It's love that binds us all together
And guides the shape of history's course, Oh
Let all of us rejoice
And raise our voice

May peace prevail on Earth
May peace be in our homes and countries
In these troubled times we live in
We will see the dark come light, Oh
May peace prevail on Earth tonight
In our lives
