I woke up this morning I could see,

I could walk,I could talk,

I could smile,I could smell,

I could taste,I could laugh,

I had food to eat,I had water to drink,

the best thing of all,

there is 'peace'

Peace in the house, peace outside,

so still is the air, not a sound near or far,

the air is fresh, no smog or smoke,

no people about, not a soul in site,

it's great where I live,

not like some places I hear about

where they don't have 'peace'

I look at the houses, and i recall

the different races of people,

religions and creeds,

in nearly every house lives a person from afar

all living in harmony

respecting each other and conforming to my land

a street of many nations

where there is 'peace'

I wonder how many people don't have what I have today,

the world has changed, some live in fear,

and I won't be fearful, I walk free,

without any fear i love, i don't hate,

I smile because I have a lot to smile about

I really wish that the world was like my street,

for then,

there would be 'peace'
