This gentle 3-part round for ages 5 - adult is an anthem of peace, trust and love. This song is suitable for adult and children's choirs as well as classes.
Part 1:
Peace be with you, peace be with you,
As you walk, and you talk, as you play everyday.
Part 2:
Love can surround us, from dawn to dusk
Love can surround us, if we can trust.
Part 3:
Flowers need the rain to grow, and sunshine from above.
Children are like flowers, too, blossoming with love.
Our songs for children about peace and justice, resolving conflicts, and celebrating our global family are more important than ever in these troubled times. These Peace Resources are intended to help us all move forward with hope and tools for song and action as we work together to build a healthier, more peaceful world.
