CHANT:
“All we are saying is Give Peace a Chance.”
(While alternately hitting the
floor or lap to a 4/4 beat)
After
the group chants the verse about 2x the rapper loudly speaks each stanza.
Group continues to tap out rhythm on lap or floor.

Stanza
I:
You’re
lookin’ in the mirror and you think you see
A
reflection of the you that has come to be
But,
your eyes are closed and your mind is too
Let
God reveal the Truth to you.
You’re hurtin’ and you feelin', oh so lost
Spendin'
time with ego has raised the cost
Look
away, forgive, head toward the Light
No
need to spend another sleepless night.
It's time
to choose 'tween Love and fear
Doin’
nothin’s gonna keep y...o...u right here!
Just
a bit of will; sincere request
Opens
up your mind to Spirit’s quest
Spirit will answer; show you the Way
Remind
you who you are today
You
are one with God, His Joy and Peace
Follow Spirit and your pain will cease
Love
and joy are ways to extend
No
magic about it; nothing to pretend
You’re One with God. Pull the curtain back
You’ll
want for nothing. They’ll be no lack.
(Voices
and hand sounds get softer and softer as we end the chant. At the end, reach
over and hold hands with those on either side as the chant ends with, "And with each other.")
I
am Love
You
are Love
We
are One with God (3x)
And with each other (1x)
And with each other (1x)
