We need a little peace here
It's time think this over
A little release here on earth

To understand our brothers
We've got to feel for others
To have a little peace right here on earth

We need hope, we need the light
We need a little peace here on earth

We need the courage and the strength
And the will to believe it
We need a little peace here on earth

We need a little patience
And to know what grace is
To have a little peace here on earth

We need to offer shelter
To those in stormy weather
To live in peace here on earth

We need the hope, we need the light
We need the love to see it
We need a little peace here on earth

We need the courage and the strength
And the will to believe it
We need a little peace here on earth

Now more than ever, we need a little love
(To see through the eyes of love)
Forever to treasure, a little peace
Here on earth, a little peace right here on earth
