Lyrics
TO MAKE THIS WORLD ONE OF LOVE G Rich in Spirit G C G C Em D It's not Sept.10th anymore & peace has seemed to lost it's sway C G Em Am How do we get people who feel they are right G C D To see the world in a unified way G C G To see the world in a more loving way G C G I've got something to say to those living in the land of the free From what I've seen you don't seem that free to me For a little promised security your Bill of Rights becomes history ll: 9/11 fear has closed your eyes to see :ll (repeat line) - chorus - F G Am I pray for the healing of the war-monger's soul F G C I pray for relief for the poor suffering ones F G It doesn't matter what country you're from C Em Am Thy Kingdom come Thy will be done F C D So I'll keep helping to fill this world full of beauty F C G I'll keep helping to make this world one of love G C G Does it matter if they're white Does it even matter that they're human G Em Am Because they're not from here We won't care if they disappear ll: & their suffering cannot be felt in our bones :ll (repeat line) G C G I've something to say to those living in the home of the brave From what I've seen we don't seem that brave to me D In our hearts we know what's right But 9/11 has dimmed our light ll: & against the world our country's flag we wave :ll - chorus G C G What's it gonna take to show you how we hurt the world? Do we need terror in our own land to convince us now?D The seeds we sow over there will come back to harvest here Am ll: Put down the sword & return back to the plow :ll (repeat line) - chorus
