Peace Begins at Home
Pick up the papers, read the front page news.
There's fighting in the Middle East between Arabs and the Jews.
The troubles of our world are laid out at our fingertips.
But the news we read in papers is not the only news there is.
Peace, begins at home.
It starts with a child, who learns to love and grow.
Planted like a seed.
Nurtured by families in their hopes and dreams.
Peace begins at home.
Turn on the TV, what do we hear?
Violence and bloodshed are ringing in our ears.
Fueled by emotions of hatred and fear.
But the images on TV are not the way the world should be.
So don't be discouraged by the news that you hear.
And don't be put off by the way the world appears.
The love you share with others will return to you in time.
We can only be examples for the world we hope to find.
