Peace On Earth

from Days Of Certainty (1991) album, released February 14, 2017
PRODICED, ENGINEERED & MIXED BY ROBERT GRAEME

Writing this song wasn't my idea. In 1991 my Dear friend Bridget challenged me to write and record it as a response to the then war in Kuwait. I played all the parts to her as I wrote them and she approved them all. Its only claim to fame is that, during the 2003 war in Iraq, I offered it to 'The James Whale Show' (UK Talk Radio) as James was dedicating a whole program to a live discussion between people of most of the world's major religions "...to sort it all out once and for all..." It ended in chaos. They played it twice.
Bridget Ancel-Christy passed away far too young. She was a Brilliant soul and a beloved friend never forgotten x

PEACE ON EARTH

Let me introduce you...

This is Bridget.
This Is Sue.
They got spirit
just like you.
They been thinking:
"Enough is enough.
No more killing.
God is Love."

Peace on Earth.

Maybe you're a Moslem.
Maybe you're a Jew.
Maybe you're a Christian,
a Baha'i,
a Buddhist
or a Hindu.
No matter what the Name is
or where you're from
people are many
God is One.

Peace on Earth.
