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
