PAUL MCCARTNEY - Movement VIII - Peace lyrics

rate me

SHANTY

And so it was that you were born

Into this world one winter morning,

With a childish innocence you smiled at me

And I was born again.

BOY SOLO

Non nobis solum

Sed toti mundo

BOYS' CHOIR

Nati,

Mundo nati.

BOY SOLO

Toti mundo nati.

MEN'S CHORUS

God is good

And He will be our savior,

All we need

Is in His power to give us.

Let the light that lies within

His heart

Illuminate our being.

FULL CHORUS

God is good

And with this thought to guide us

We will live

In joyful contemplation.

Let the love that lives within your heart

Illuminate your being.

PREACHER

What people want is a family life,

The strength of a home and a moat round the castle.

Pull up the drawbridge,

Staying at home with the family.

All people want is a family life,

Sometimes they find that it isn't so easy.

People can argue,

Life can be hard on a family.

BASSES

Mum's in the kitchen, she won't speak to Dad.

ALTOS

Uncle's ashamed of the good time he had.

TENORS

Brothers and sisters are lifting the roof

With the music they play all night.

PREACHER

But people still want a family life,

Nothing replaces the love and affection.

Pull up the drawbridge

Tempers are frayed, but it's like that.

ALTOS

Don't be dismayed if it's like that.

BASSES

Like that.

PREACHER

You're not obeyed but you like that -family life.

BOYS and ALTOS

God is good.

In Him we'll live for ever,

Satisfied

Inside His grace and glory,

FULL CHORUS

Safe and sound

In His eternal love

We have found salvation.

NURSE

Dad's In the garden, he won't speak to M

MARY DEE Mother.

NURSE

Uncle's in bed with a pain in his...

SHANTY

The Devil is evil

PREACHER

And God is good.

MARY DEE

The Devil is evil

SHANTY With a D.

MARY DEE

And God is good

SHANTY Without an O.

MARY DEE and NURSE God is good without an O.

SHANTY and PREACHER

0...

MARY DEE and NURSE

And so we are grateful for harmony

For we will be faithful

SHANTY and PREACHER

Eternally.

MARY DEE, NURSE, SHANTY and PREACHER

(Ah)

FULL CHORUS

(Ah)

God is good,

The universal savior.

Trust in Him

To lead us through the darkness.

Live in love and when the battle's won

MARY DEE and NURSE

Live in peace.

SHANTY and PREACHER

Live in peace.

FULL CHORUS

Live in peace for ever.

SOLO QUARTET

Live in peace.

ALL Live in peace together.

SHANTY

So on and on the story goes

From day to day throughout our lives.

MARY DEE

What can we do,

that's how it grows.

I am with you,

MARY DEE and SHANTY

Our love survives.
