We Got to Have Peace Song by Curtis Mayfield

by Admin | Nov 7, 2025 | Peace, Songs

Lyrics

We got to have peaceTo keep the world aliveAnd war to cease

We got to have joyTrue in our heartsWith strength we can't destroy

People hear usThrough our voice the world knowsThere's no choice

We're begging to save the childrenThe little onesWho just don't understand

Give them a chanceTo breed their youngAnd help purify the land

People hear usThrough our voice the world knowsThere's no choice

And the people in our neighborhoodThey would if they only couldMeet and shake the other's hand

Work together for the good of the land

Give us all an equal chanceIt could be such a sweet romance

And the soldiers who are dead and goneIf only we could bring back one

He'd say, "We got to have peace

To keep the world aliveAnd war to cease

We got to have joy

True in our heartsWith strength we can't destroy

People hear us

Through our voice the world knowsThere's no choice

And the people in our neighborhood

They would if they only couldMeet and shake the other's handWork together for the good of the land

Give us all an equal chanceIt could be such a sweet romanceAnd the soldiers who are dead and gone

If only we could bring back one

We got to have peaceWe got to have peace

Let the world know

Peace, peace, peaceWe got to have peace

People hear usThrough our voice the world knowsThere's no choice

Save the childrenSave the childrenSave the children

And the people in our neighborhoodWho would if they only couldMeet and shake the other's hand

Work together for the good of the land

Give us all an equal chanceIt could be such a sweet romance

And the soldiers who are dead and gone

If only we could bring back one

We got to have peace

Let the people singin'Peace, peace, peace

We got to have peace

I sing peace, peace, peaceWe got to have peace

Peace, peace, peaceWe got to have peace

Heal the World Michael Jackson

"Heal The World"

Think about—um—the generations and they say we wanna make it a better place for our children, and our children's children, so that they they they know it's a better world for them, and think if they can make it a better place

There's a place in your heart
And I know that it is love
And this place could be much brighter than tomorrow

And if you really try
You'll find there's no need to cry
In this place you'll feel there's no hurt or sorrow

There are ways to get there
If you care enough for the living
Make a little space
Make a better place

Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me
And the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place
For you and for me

If you want to know why
There's a love that cannot lie
Love is strong
It only cares for joyful giving

If we try we shall see
In this bliss we cannot feel
Fear or dread
We stop existing and start living

Then it feels that always
Love's enough for us growing
Make a better world
To make a better world

Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me
And the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place
For you and for me

And the dream we were conceived in
Will reveal a joyful face
And the world we once believed in
Will shine again in grace

Then why do we keep strangling life
Wound this Earth, crucify its soul?
Though it's plain to see
This world is heavenly
Be God's glow

We could fly so high
Let our spirits never die
In my heart I feel you are all my brothers

Create a world with no fear
Together we'll cry happy tears
See the nations turn their swords into plowshares

We could really get there
If you cared enough for the living
Make a little space
To make a better place

Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me
And the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place
For you and for me

Heal the world (Heal the world)
Make it a better place
For you and for me
And the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place
For you and for me

There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place
For you and for me

You and for me
Make a better place (You and for me)
Make a better place (You and for me)
Make a better place (You and for me)
(You and for me)

Heal the world we live in (You and for me)
Save it for our children (You and for me)
Heal the world we live in (You and for me)
Save it for our children (You and for me)
Heal the world we live in (You and for me)
Save it for our children (You and for me)
Heal the world we live in (You and for me)
Save it for our children

I Wish You Peace Lyrics by the Eagles

by Admin | Nov 7, 2025 | Music, Peace, Songs

Lyrics

I wish you peace when the cold winds blowWarmed by the fire's glowI wish you comfort in the, the lonely timeArms to hold you when you ache inside

I wish you hope when things are going badKind words when times are sadI wish you shelter from the, the raging windCooling waters at the fever's end

I wish you peace when times are hardA light to guide you through the darkAnd when storms are high, and your, your dreams are lowI wish you the strength to let love growOh, I wish you the strength to let love flow

Wish you peace when times are hardA light to guide you through the darkAnd when storms are high and your, your dreams are low

Wish you the strength to let love grow, ah, ah, ahI wish you the strength to let love flow, ah, ah, ah

I wish you the strength to let love glow, ah, ah, ahI wish you the strength to let love glow

A Wish for Peace

I wish for you,
I wish for me,
I wish for all the world to live in harmony.
When I look into the sky at night and see the stars above,
I wish for peace, I wish for love.

I wish for you
…I wish for you
I wish for me
…I wish for me

I wish for all the world to live in harmony.
When I look into the sky at night and see the stars above,
I wish for peace,
…I wish for peace

I wish for love.

I wish for hope, I wish for joy,
I wish for all these things for every girl and boy,
That where ever in the world they are,
they’ll see the stars above and wish for peace,
And wish for love.

Ah…

When I look into the sky at night and see the stars above,
I wish for peace
…I wish for peace
I wish for love.

Song of Songs Chapter 1

by Admin | Nov 7, 2025 | Ancient Texts, Articles, Bible, Books, Hebrews

The Song of King Solomon Chapter 1 Kings James Version

Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth: for thy love is better than wine.

Because of the savour of thy good ointments thy name is as ointment poured forth, therefore do the virgins love thee.

Draw me, we will run after thee: the king hath brought me into his chambers: we will be glad and rejoice in thee, we will remember thy love more than wine: the upright love thee.

I am black, but comely, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, as the tents of Kedar, as the curtains of Solomon.

Look not upon me, because I am black, because the sun hath looked upon me: my mother's children were angry with me; they made me the keeper of the vineyards; but mine own vineyard have I not kept.

Tell me, O thou whom my soul loveth, where thou feedest, where thou makest thy flock to rest at noon: for why should I be as one that turneth aside by the flocks of thy companions?

If thou know not, O thou fairest among women, go thy way forth by the footsteps of the flock, and feed thy kids beside the shepherds' tents.

I have compared thee, O my love, to a company of horses in Pharaoh's chariots.

Thy cheeks are comely with rows of jewels, thy neck with chains of gold.

We will make thee borders of gold with studs of silver.

While the king sitteth at his table, my spikenard sendeth forth the smell thereof.

A bundle of myrrh is my well-beloved unto me; he shall lie all night betwixt my breasts.

My beloved is unto me as a cluster of camphire in the vineyards of Engedi.

Behold, thou art fair, my love; behold, thou art fair; thou hast doves' eyes.

Behold, thou art fair, my beloved, yea, pleasant: also our bed is green.

The beams of our house are cedar, and our rafters of fir.

Friendship by Henry David Thoreau

by Admin | Nov 6, 2025 | Friendship Poems, Love Poems, Male Poets, Poems, Poetry, Poets

I think awhile of Love, and while I think,
Love is to me a world,
Sole meat and sweetest drink,
And close connecting link
Tween heaven and earth.

I only know it is, not how or why,
My greatest happiness;
However hard I try,
Not if I were to die,
Can I explain.

I fain would ask my friend how it can be,
But when the time arrives,
Then Love is more lovely
Than anything to me,
And so I’m dumb.

For if the truth were known, Love cannot speak,
But only thinks and does;
Though surely out ’twill leak
Without the help of Greek,
Or any tongue.

A man may love the truth and practise it,
Beauty he may admire,
And goodness not omit,
As much as may befit
To reverence.

But only when these three together meet,
As they always incline,
And make one soul the seat,
And favorite retreat,
Of loveliness;

When under kindred shape, like loves and hates
And a kindred nature,
Proclaim us to be mates,
Exposed to equal fates
Eternally;

And each may other help, and service do,
Drawing Love’s bands more tight,
Service he ne’er shall rue
While one and one make two,
And two are one;

In such case only doth man fully prove
Fully as man can do,
What power there is in Love
His inmost soul to move
Resistlessly.

Two sturdy oaks I mean, which side by side,
Withstand the winter’s storm,
And spite of wind and tide,
Grow up the meadow’s pride,
For both are strong

Above they barely touch, but undermined
Down to their deepest source,
Admiring you shall find
Their roots are intertwined
Insep’rably.

A Friend by Gillian Jones

by Admin | Nov 6, 2025 | Female Poets, Friendship Poems, Poems, Poetry, Poets

A person who will listen and not condemn
Someone on whom you can depend
They will not flee when bad times are here
Instead they will be there to lend an ear
They will think of ways to make you smile
So you can be happy for a while
When times are good and happy there after
They will be there to share the laughter
Do not forget your friends at all
For they pick you up when you fall
Do not expect to just take and hold
Give friendship back, it is pure gold.

Sonnet 104: To me, fair friend, you never can be old

Sonnet 104: To me, fair friend, you never can be old

By William Shakespeare

To me, fair friend, you never can be old,

For as you were when first your eye I eyed,

Such seems your beauty still. Three winters cold

Have from the forests shook three summers’ pride,

Three beauteous springs to yellow autumn turned

In process of the seasons have I seen,

Three April perfumes in three hot Junes burned,

Since first I saw you fresh, which yet are green.

Ah, yet doth beauty, like a dial-hand,

Steal from his figure, and no pace perceived;

So your sweet hue, which methinks still doth stand,

Hath motion, and mine eye may be deceived:

For fear of which, hear this, thou age unbred:

Ere you were born was beauty’s summer dead.

Alone by Maya Angelou

by Admin | Nov 6, 2025 | Female Poets, Friendship Poems, Life Poems, Maya Angelou, Poems, Poetry, Poets, Wisdom Poems

Lying, thinking
Last night
How to find my soul a home
Where water is not thirsty
And bread loaf is not stone
I came up with one thing
And I don’t believe I’m wrong
That nobody,
But nobody
Can make it out here alone.

Alone, all alone
Nobody, but nobody
Can make it out here alone.

There are some millionaires
With money they can’t use
Their wives run round like banshees
Their children sing the blues
They’ve got expensive doctors
To cure their hearts of stone.
But nobody
No, nobody
Can make it out here alone.

Alone, all alone
Nobody, but nobody
Can make it out here alone.

Now if you listen closely
I’ll tell you what I know
Storm clouds are gathering
The wind is gonna blow
The race of man is suffering
And I can hear the moan,
’Cause nobody,
But nobody
Can make it out here alone.

Alone, all alone
Nobody, but nobody
Can make it out here alone.
