City of Peace

I'll stand beside you
When you're broken and betrayed
And give you shelter
When the wind won't blow your way
I'll lift you up
When you're down and out and all alone
'Cause kindness
Should skip like a stone
I'll open my door for you
If you got no place to go
And I'll keep on singin'
If you forget the words to the songs you know
I'll light a candle for you
If all light in the world fails to shine
'Cause kindness should be blind
Oh, Oh come follow me
To the place where river meets sea
Oh, Oh this is where we
Shall build a city of peace
Oh, oh oh
Oh, oh oh
Oh, oh oh
Oh, oh oh

Rise together
All good people
Keep your eyes to the sun
Where the gleaming ivory tower
Will be free for everyone
There's no waiting for an army
And we can't live for yesterday
'Cause we've seen a bloody tomorrow
And we are fully awake
I'll share my seat with you
Even if I don't know your name
And give you comfort
If you haven't been chosen to play the game
I'll give my arm to you
When you don't have strength enough to stand
'Cause kindness
Should run like the sand
I'll give my hand to you
Though I don't see your point of view
And I'll take one last walk down
An empty road with you
I'll speak the truth for you
When your voice is weak and small
'Cause kindness
Should be for one and all
Oh, Oh come follow me
To the place where river meets sea
Oh, Oh this is where we
Shall build a city of peace
Oh, oh oh
Oh, oh oh
Oh, oh oh
Oh, oh oh
