And when the moon glows on clear summer evenings Stars shine far away And Mother Earth is still and sleeping Rest now until the day All the birds in slumber No magpie sings her song And all the children sleep and dream Peace be still peace be still And when the sun rises over the mountains And dances on the ocean waves And kookaburras laugh in the gum trees There's hope again with every new day All the birds are singing Eternal harmonies And all across this ancient land We give our thanks for all good things For all good things
