WE WILL LIFT UP THIS WORLD HIGHER AND HIGHER
LIGHT UP THIS WORLD BRIGHTER AND BRIGHTER
STEP BY STEP
DAY BY DAY
WE LIFT UP THIS WORLD TO PEACE
WE LIFT UP THIS WORLD TO PEACE
We’ll plant a garden, plant more trees
Grow flowers, keep Earth clean
Recycle, pick up trash
A little bit here, a little bit there is all we ask
(CHORUS)
We’ll pay attention, do our best in school
Stay off the drugs, clean our room
Take care of ourselves body and soul
A little bit here, a little bit there and off we go
(CHORUS)
We’ll be responsible in all we do
Love our family and the animals too
Help people, learn to share
A little bit here, a little bit there, we’re almost there
(CHORUS)
We’ll keep smiling, singing too
Do what the wise ones tell us to
Love everybody, love your home
A little bit here, a little bit there, Peace will come
(CHORUS)
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.
