The pendulum on my desk swings back and forth
From left to right
A constant reminder of the cycles of life
Like day and night
But when wrong is masked as right
Another's rights under fire... newswire dire
I'll join the choir that sings and shouts
A sea of humanity washing over walls built to conquer and divide
Hate step aside
Black and white tied together... forever
Like Muslim, Jew and Christian together... forever
Blessed be the ties that bind thee
Abide with me
Abide the three, four, five, six, seven billion together
Stand
Side by side
Forever with hearts unified and...
Together
Turn darkness into light
Turn the dimmer to bright
Help the blind walk right
Love heals
Love gives sight
Love wins before the fight has even begun
But...
I don't have a desk from which a pendulum swings
Back and forth from south to north
All I have is a window
Facing east... with a bright view
Of the future
Peace be unto you
And upon you peace
